    "Marshal, the Air Force's bombing of the Americans is not going very well." Xie Dingkun reported to Marshal Zhao Bowen.  He was also very surprised after receiving the telegram from the front line.  This is the first time since the war began that the Chinese Air Force has suffered a defeat.

    "What's going on?" Marshal Zhao Bowen couldn't help but frowned.  The attack on the U.S. military's central line of defense has just begun, and it doesn't seem to be going well!  This may have a considerable impact on subsequent operations.  According to the previously formulated plan, the air force cooperated with the artillery to first eliminate the US artillery stationed in Cuautla, giving the Chinese army an absolute advantage in firepower.  Then, the Chinese army and mercenaries launched an attack on the US military, focusing all the attention of the US military here.  After that, the armored forces quickly began to attack, trying to capture Puebla within two days, and then quickly moved north to surround Mexico City. The entire attack was completed within a week.

    "The U.S. military is equipped with an advanced anti-aircraft machine gun, and its performance is not inferior to our anti-aircraft machine gun. In the bombing just now, the Air Force lost seven aircraft, including six FB'Haidongqing, fighter jets and one FHB'hunter.  Eagle, dive bomber. Because of the threat of US anti-aircraft machine guns, HB' bombers dropped bombs at an altitude of two thousand meters, but the effect was not good! The airship troops are still on their way, but the Air Force commander suggested giving up the bombing!" General Xie Dingkun  said.  Obviously, the U.S. military suddenly possesses weapons that can endanger the safety of the Air Force, making the Air Force pilots very nervous.  They seemed to be used to bullying the US military who had no power to fight back, and they were a little uncomfortable for a while.

    Marshal Zhao Bowen nodded. It was not unexpected that the US military could quickly possess weapons to deal with the Chinese Air Force.  War is a catalyst for the development of science and technology. After the emergence of the Chinese Air Force, it caused huge casualties to the US military. It is very normal for the US military to have anti-aircraft machine guns comparable to Chinese equipment in a short period of time.

    After all, the technological content of anti-aircraft machine guns is not high, and it is not difficult for the United States, which has strong industrial strength.

    "Marshal, should we postpone the attack? If we cannot destroy the American artillery, it will cause heavy casualties to the attacking troops. In addition, the US military in other places must also be equipped with such anti-aircraft machine guns." Xie Dingkun entered  Said the general.

    "No! We can't be afraid just because the US military is equipped with a weapon that can threaten us. No matter what, from the perspective of weapons, we are much stronger than the US military. We will still act according to the plan. The armored forces will tomorrow  Start the assault on Puebla, and go to the front line to command the troops as soon as possible! Send a telegram to General He Bingju, and there is no need to postpone the attack on Cuautla. However, you can try to let the North Koreans attack!" said Marshal Zhao Bowen.  .  In the previous defense line of the Sierra Madre del Sur, the losses of the Korean mercenaries were not significant, but the Japanese mercenaries lost hundreds of thousands of people.  The Chinese side could not favor one over the other, so this time it decided to let North Korean mercenaries attack first.

    "Yes, Marshal! I will rush to the army in the afternoon!" General Xie Dingkun said.  He would be the commander of this armored outflank of Mexico City.  Although he is not very good at using armored forces.  But this will not have much impact. As for the application of armored forces, just let the commander below perform his own role. He only needs to grasp the general direction.

    On the Kuautla front line, the U.S. military, which had shot down several Chinese Air Force fighter planes, was excited. Everyone was happy, as if they had won a huge victory.  However, they seem to have forgotten how many casualties they paid in order to shoot down these fighter planes.  More than a dozen anti-aircraft positions were destroyed, hundreds of anti-aircraft machine guns were lost, and personnel losses were as high as thousands.  You know, there are only a total of 400 anti-aircraft machine guns in Cuautla.  A quarter has been lost now. If the Chinese Air Force bombs again, how much will they have left?  Once these anti-aircraft machine guns are destroyed, the US military will still become a lamb to be slaughtered without the power to fight back.  Of course, by then the US military may be able to deploy anti-aircraft machine guns from other places to assist in defense.

    At 9:05 a.m., the Chinese Army¡¯s artillery unit stopped shelling.  During the hour-long shelling, China lost more than 60 large-caliber artillery pieces, while the U.S. artillery lost more. More than 200 artillery pieces were destroyed. This also included a small number of artillery pieces destroyed by China.  Destroyed by the Air Force.  But most of it was because after the US artillery observation balloon was destroyed, the Chinese artillery completely took the initiative in the artillery battle and suppressed the US artillery.  Before the Chinese Air Force left, the US military's observation balloons did not dare to take off again, so they were always at a disadvantage.

    After the bombardment stopped, the attack on Cuautla officially began.  In the forward position, a division of North Korean mercenaries was already ready to attack.  However, their originally high morale was somewhat reduced after seeing the Chinese Air Force fighter jets being shot down.  !

    "General Jin, the time is up, let's start the attack!"?General He Bingju, commander of the 8th Army Group of the Army, ordered.

    "Yes, Your Excellency, General!" General Kim Soon-hwa, the commander of the North Korean mercenaries, nodded and immediately issued an attack order to the 12th Division of the North Korean mercenaries on the front line.  During the battle on the defensive line of the Sierra Madre del Sur, the Japanese mercenaries achieved great success, which made General Jin Shunhua very dissatisfied.  In his opinion, North Korean mercenaries are no worse than Japanese mercenaries, they just don't have a chance.  Now, China has allowed North Korean mercenaries to take the lead in attacking, which undoubtedly gives them a chance to prove themselves.  General Jin Shunhua has given orders to the frontline generals to demonstrate the strength of North Korean mercenaries in battle, and to let Chinese generals see that North Korean mercenaries are China's most loyal subordinates.  After all, North Korea has been a vassal state of China for thousands of years. In their minds, they have always believed that their status is much higher than that of Japan, a latecomer.

    "Start the attack! Kill all these Americans and let them know how powerful our Korean warriors are!" The commander of the 12th Division of the North Korean mercenaries immediately issued the order to attack.  Tens of thousands of Korean soldiers jumped out of their positions and launched a fierce attack on the US defense line.

    "Da da da! Boom! Boom! Boom!" Because the relationship between North Korea and China is closer, the weapons equipped by North Korean mercenaries are much more powerful than those of Japanese mercenaries, at least the number of heavy machine guns and mortars is higher.  About half more.  When the infantry launched a charge, the heavy machine guns and mortars behind immediately provided fire cover for the infantry.

    "Quick! Get up! Get up! The Chinese are coming up, beat them down, or we will die!" The voices of low-level officers on the US front line filled the entire trench.

    From the perspective of Americans, East Asians all look similar, so they mistake Koreans for Chinese.

    The U.S. soldiers emerged from the anti-gun holes, entered the trenches, and prepared to open fire.  Some machine gun firepower points have been destroyed, and a lot of barbed wire fences have been blown up, which has reduced the performance of the US military's defenses a lot.

    "Mortars, fire, beat these Chinese sons of bitches hard!" A US captain was lying in the trench, looking at the charging North Korean mercenary soldiers, and ordered loudly.

    "Boom! Boom!" Two mortar shells fell into the ranks of North Korean mercenaries. Several North Korean mercenary soldiers were blown up. After landing, they made no sound.

    ¡°Click, click, click!¡± The heavy machine guns and light machine guns of the US military also rang.  A dense barrage of bullets shot out, hitting the North Korean mercenary soldiers at the front. Bloody flowers bloomed and they fell to the ground.

    "Charge! Charge!" The North Korean mercenary soldiers who were attacked did not retreat. Under the orders of the officers, they continued to attack.  After paying a heavy price, the North Korean mercenaries rushed to a place less than 100 meters away from the US military position.  At this time, the U.S. military's firepower was already very powerful, and the North Korean mercenaries were completely suppressed here.  Many North Korean mercenary soldiers lay on the ground and fired at the US military.  However, their marksmanship cannot be compared with that of Japanese mercenaries, and they cannot take any advantage in the shooting.

    "Light machine guns, cover fire! Set up mortars and knock out the American heavy machine guns!" a North Korean mercenary officer ordered.

    A machine gunner came forward quickly and fired at the US troops with his light machine gun.  However, before he finished firing a magazine, a bloody hole appeared on his head.  Fortunately, using this time, the mortar crew had already set up the mortar.

    "Boom!" A mortar shell flew towards the US military's defense line.  However, the skills of the North Korean mercenary gunners were not up to standard, and the shells flew over the U.S. trenches without causing any casualties to the U.S. troops.  The North Korean mercenary gunners wanted to continue firing, but there was no chance.  The US military's heavy machine guns had discovered them and started firing fiercely.  The dense bullets hit, and several gunners were beaten into sieves and fell into a pool of blood.

    Although the attacks by North Korean mercenaries were very violent, they faced the elite troops of the U.S. Army.  A division of North Korean mercenaries launched a probing attack and lasted only half an hour before collapsing due to heavy losses.  There were tens of thousands of people when they launched the attack, but when they retreated to their positions, only one-third of them were left. The rest had all stayed in front of the US military positions.  Although it was only a tentative attack, the failure of the attack still made the North Korean mercenary commander General Kim Soon-hwa feel ashamed!
