Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    At 10 a.m. on March 27, Chinese troops wearing dark green combat uniforms were marching quickly on the simple road from Huejochingo to Mexico City, as if a long green dragon was winding on the ground.

    In front of the entire team are the light tank battalions and mechanized infantry battalions of three armored brigades.  In order to get to Mexico City as soon as possible, General Du Qizheng, commander of the 7th Army, specifically asked the armored troops to set off first.  Moreover, in order to equip these armored units with supporting infantry, General Du Qizheng mobilized more than 200 trucks from the baggage troops and transported an infantry regiment to accompany them.

    General Du Qizheng knew that once the U.S. military in Mexico City knew that Lieutenant General Richard led his troops to surrender, they would definitely withdraw from Mexico City.  And their mission is to keep the main force of the US military as much as possible.  After all, it¡¯s hundreds of kilometers from Huejochingo to Mexico City.  If General Pershing realized something was wrong and had retreated, they would not be able to catch up.  Fortunately, there are two million US troops in Mexico City and the area south of Mexico City.  Even if General Pershing ordered a retreat, so many troops would not be able to leave in a short while.  Marshal Zhao Bowen also asked General Du Qizheng to keep the main force of the US military as much as possible.

    "General, a call from the headquarters!" A war horse caught up with General Du Qizheng's car and handed him a telegram sent from the headquarters.

    General Du Qizheng took the telegram and read it, and then his face became very serious.  The telegram was sent by Marshal Zhao Bowen, informing him that the US military had begun to retreat from Mexico City.  In order to stop the US military, Marshal Zhao Bowen has ordered the Air Force fighter planes to bomb the retreating US troops.  Marshal Zhao Bowen asked General Du Qizheng to rush to Mexico City before dark to block this gap and stop more US troops!

    "Come here, give the order to the armored troops on the front line to speed up. They must arrive in Mexico City before six o'clock in the afternoon, and choose a favorable terrain to deploy blocking positions and block the Americans' retreat!" General Du Qizheng accepted.  After the telegram was sent, the order was issued.  At this moment, their position is still 70 kilometers away from Mexico City. They have to cover 70 kilometers in eight hours and choose favorable terrain to build a blocking position, which means that the armored forces in front must increase their speed to ten kilometers per hour.  above.

    "Yes, Commander!" The orderer quickly conveyed the order.  After receiving the order, the armored troops in front of the entire team accelerated again, slowly shook off the infantry units behind, and rushed towards Mexico City quickly.

    TP ¡®Wild Wolf, the maximum road speed of the light tank is 30 kilometers per hour, and the off-road speed is 10 kilometers per hour.  The road from Huejochingo to Mexico City is just a simple road, but it is much longer than the wilderness.  TP ¡®Wild Wolf, a light tank can move at a speed of almost twenty kilometers per hour.  However, after running 70 kilometers, I don¡¯t know how many tanks are left to continue fighting.  The armored vehicles are faster, but they will act as supporting troops for the tanks.  Behind them were soldiers from an infantry regiment loaded on trucks.  In order to avoid damage to tanks and armored vehicles as much as possible, the armored forces controlled their advance speed to 5 kilometers per hour.  If nothing unexpected happens, they will arrive in Mexico City in 5 hours.

    The decisive retreat of the US military forced the Chinese army to speed up the progress of the war. Otherwise, it is very likely to watch the US military slip away. This is not what Marshal Zhao Bowen and other generals of the Chinese army want to see.  They have been preparing for this battle for a long time, in order to keep the main force of the US military in Mexico City and annihilate it.  If the main force of the US military withdraws, everything will be in vain!  Once the battle is successful, wiping out the main U.S. forces behind Mexico City will also be very beneficial to the Chinese army in winning the next war.

    To this end, in addition to ordering General Du Qizheng to speed up the pursuit, the Air Force's fleet also launched an attack on the retreating US troops.  At 11:40 a.m., a fleet of more than 200 Air Force aircraft arrived in the north of Mexico City and launched an attack on the US troops who were evacuating by road.  FB'Haidongqing, fighter planes circled over the U.S. military team, attacking the U.S. troops with bombs mounted on the wings and aircraft machine guns on the nose.

    The U.S. military marching intensively on the road has undoubtedly become the best target.  Often when a row of bullets is fired, a long list of American soldiers will fall into a pool of blood!

    HB ¡®Hongyan, the advantage of the bomber¡¯s large bomb load is fully demonstrated at this moment.  Each HB'Hongyan bomber can carry one ton of aerial bombs. If it carries all 25 kilograms of aerial bombs, it can carry 40 bombs.  When these bombs fall densely on the heads of the US troops, they are enough to cause huge damage to the retreating US troops.  The FH5 Falcon dive bomber puts its main attack target on the United States.The convoys on the road, whether they were trucks carrying military supplies or towing artillery, became the targets of their attacks.  Whenever the FH5 Falcon dive bomber dives to drop bombs, the sharp whistling sound makes the US officers and soldiers below cover their ears and run away.  Truck after truck was blown up, blocking the highway.  Especially after some trucks carrying artillery shells were blown up, it would cause huge casualties to the surrounding US officers and soldiers.  The Mexican government troops and Mexicans marching in the wild fields on both sides of the road were even more surprised and dumbfounded.  They fled frantically into the surrounding mountains and forests to avoid being harmed by the pond fish!

    "Asshole! Set up the anti-aircraft machine guns and shoot down the Chinese planes!" U.S. military officers shouted angrily when they saw their soldiers being ravaged by Chinese Air Force fighter jets.

    "Ta-ta-ta!" Soon, the U.S. military's heavy machine guns began to fire, and the dense rain of bullets seemed to form a web of fire, trying to envelope the Chinese Air Force fighters inside.  However, the fighter planes in the sky were like dexterous birds, easily passing through the fire net.  And launched an attack on the US military's anti-aircraft machine guns.

    The bombing by the Chinese Air Force ended in less than half an hour, but it caused huge casualties to the US military.  There were piles of corpses on and along both sides of the highway, many of them mutilated.  There were even some bombed-out truck wreckage still burning on the road.

    After the Chinese Air Force¡¯s air raid ended, U.S. soldiers, under the orders of their officers, began to clear obstacles on the road and the bodies of their fallen comrades, and then began to retreat northward.  Everyone knows that the Chinese Air Force's attack is just to slow down their speed.  As long as they can escape before the main Chinese army catches up, they will be safe.

    On the battlefield of Cuautla, the battle is still going on.  On the morning of April 27, it was still North Korean mercenaries who were responsible for launching the attack.  With the support of the Chinese army's artillery, the North Korean mercenaries finally captured the US military's first line of defense outside Kuautla after suffering tens of thousands of casualties.  However, in front of them, there are two lines of defense carefully constructed by the US military.

    When the North Korean mercenary commander General Kim Soon-hwa was preparing to launch an attack on the U.S. military¡¯s second line of defense outside Kuautla, the Chinese army commander Marshal Zhao Bowen stopped him.

    "General Jin, the North Korean mercenaries only need to hold the front line of defense. Starting from the afternoon, we will carry out the attack. This time, we will break through the US defense line in one go and enter the city of Cuautla. By then North Korea  Mercenaries must be prepared for street fighting!" Marshal Zhao Bowen said.  Now that the U.S. military has begun to retreat, the attack on Cuautla cannot be just a show. It must quickly break through the U.S. military's defense line and hold back the main force of the U.S. military.

    "Yes, Marshal!" General Jin Shunhua ordered.  However, he did not believe Marshal Zhao Bowen's statement that he would enter the city of Cuautla this afternoon.  In order to seize the first line of defense of the US military, the North Korean mercenaries paid a price of nearly 30,000 casualties during the two and a half days of fighting.  The Chinese army had to break through the two lines of defense of the US military in one afternoon and enter the city of Cuautla. In the eyes of General Jin Shunhua, this was completely bragging.  However, he did not dare to show any signs of it.

    "General Oshima, have your Japanese mercenaries rested?" Marshal Zhao Bowen asked.  Japanese mercenaries fight without fear of death. If they want to break through the US military's defense lines in the shortest possible time and annihilate these US troops, Japanese mercenaries are an indispensable force.

    "Marshal, please rest assured, the Japanese mercenaries have completed their rest and are ready to join the battle at any time!" General Oshima Yoshimasa puffed up his chest and replied loudly.  In the past two days, the performance of North Korean mercenaries made him sneer.  He stubbornly believed that if they were Japanese mercenaries, they would have already entered the city of Cuautla!

    "Then let's do it! At 1:30 in the afternoon, the U.S. military's general attack on Cuautla officially begins! This time, the 8th Group Army of the Chinese Army will be the main attack!" Marshal Zhao Bowen said.  The armored brigade of the 8th Group Army stayed and did not participate in the detour and battle in Mexico City, in order to annihilate the hundreds of thousands of US troops in Cuautla as quickly as possible and with minimal casualties, and then quickly  Attack Mexico City and try to hold back the US military in Cuernavaca before they have the chance to escape!
