Chapter 341 Brothers in Suffering
When Brigadier General Cawdor felt the need for reinforcement, Major General Church of the 24th Division of the Rogue Eagle was in even greater distress.

Li Yunlong is used to using his strength to conquer others!
This time was no exception. Facing the protruding Rogue Eagles, the 24th Regiment of the 19th Division directly concentrated 2 tank battalions and 1 division to defeat them!

The artillery brigade of the military headquarters followed Zhang Dabiao to the south of Bochuan to cut off his retreat. At the same time, they were also responsible for blocking reinforcements. The pressure was enormous, so Li Yunlong gave the artillery brigade directly to Zhang Dabiao.

After all, a division under his command now has a lot of heavy firepower, and with the concentrated use of two tank battalions, it won't be difficult to take on one regiment at a time.

The Rogue Eagles are still quite arrogant now. They have been triumphant all the way since the counterattack, allowing these arrogant soldiers of the Rogue Eagles to completely let themselves go. The three main regiments of the 24th Division have each run a distance of several kilometers.

The commander of the 19st Division responsible for dealing with the 101th Regiment was Shen Quan. At this moment, he pulled the division's artillery regiment to a valley 19 kilometers away from the 5th Regiment. Facing the 19th Regiment stationed on a flat ground, the first thing he did was to launch a round of indiscriminate artillery bombardment!
After observing the troop deployment of the 19th Regiment, the artillery observers on the front line quickly calibrated the artillery's attack angle and began to cover the Rogue Eagle 19th Regiment's base with artillery fire!

After the 19th Regiment was blown to pieces, two tank battalions followed the artillery fire and rushed out. Behind the more than 2 tanks were more than a hundred infantry assault squads!

Artillery fire coverage, infantry and tank coordination!
Originally it was Rogue Eagle's own specialty, but now Shen Quan used it to deal with Rogue Eagle's 19th Regiment stationed on a small flat land. It was so easy!
From the time the artillery fire cleared the way and the tanks entered to clear the area, in less than 2 hours, only a few Forrest Gump-type players from the Rogue Eagle's 19th Regiment escaped and ran towards the 21st Regiment behind them!
Like a lion fighting a rabbit, Shen Quan fought with overwhelming force this time, which shocked Major General Church, who had just been promoted to the top of the Rogue Eagle 24th Division.

We have to concentrate our troops for defense!

At the same time, he began to ask for help from Lieutenant General Kendall in the rear.

Even though he still has a strong military force, the main forces of 11 specialized battalions and 2 infantry regiments are still there, and after being concentrated, there is still a huge scale of more than people.

Major General Church may think that sticking together will help them overcome difficulties.

However, this was exactly what Li Yunlong wanted, although the enemies gathered together looked more like a hedgehog.

But don’t forget that Li Yunlong has an artillery brigade with heavy firepower and three tank battalions as sharp weapons!

Major General Church concentrated his troops and organized a C-shaped semi-circular defense circle in a small space of several square kilometers. At the same time, he dug trenches and built simple fortifications. At the same time, he organized artillery and tanks, preparing to counterattack the opponent!
But this time the terrain they chose was really bad. They were backed by the east bank of the Cheongcheon River. To the south, Zhang Dabiao led the 100th Division and the Artillery Brigade to block their way. To the east, Shen Quan's 101st Division attacked fiercely and captured the 19th Regiment in one fell swoop!
Only the north made Major General Church feel better. Wang Huaibao's 102nd Division was still relatively silent at the moment, slowly pressing forward from the north.

Since his 102nd Division came via a small mountain path, it had neither a tank battalion nor a 105mm howitzer battalion. It relied on mules and horses to carry the mountain artillery and 107mm howitzers to the front of the position. Since it was basically advancing on two legs, its speed was much slower than that of the 100th and 101st Divisions which took the main roads to the east and south.

Shen Quan had completed all the important work before Wang Huaibao led the 102nd Division to complete the encirclement in the north.

However, this is also in line with Wang Huaibao's usual temperament. He did not have a tank battalion this time, but he brought almost all of Shen Quan's rocket launchers from the 101st Division. In terms of artillery firepower, the current 102nd Division has as many as 68 107 rocket launchers!
If this were to be launched at full force, it would be a nightmare that Major General Church would never forget.

In this situation, Major General Church received a telegram for rescue from Brigadier General Corder. He was in dire straits and it was difficult for him to cross the river. He could only decline Brigadier General Corder's call for help and pass the message to Lieutenant General Kendall in the rear, asking the military to send reinforcements.

The troops Ding Wei sent to seize the Qingchuan River Bridge were the 178st Battalion of the 375th Regiment of the 1th Division. They got off to a very good start and wiped out a company of the Southern Army and puppet troops right at the bridge. The other company stayed on the east side of the bridge to guard against enemy reinforcements coming from the east.

The 2nd and 3rd companies seized a hill and the bridgehead on the west side of the bridge, forming a horn posture to guard the west side of the Cheongcheon River Bridge.

They had just gained a foothold when the Middlesex Battalion came to attack!
Battalion Commander Yao Fuhai was standing on the hilltop occupied by the 2nd Company at this moment, watching the two light armored vehicles of the Middlesex Battalion rushing ahead. He could only see a rough outline, and it would be difficult to spot them if the lights were not on.

"Zhao Hong, can you shoot down those two things?" Yao Fuhai pointed at the two armored vehicles that were driving towards the bridge head. Although he couldn't see their specific appearance clearly, judging from the outline, they should be the familiar M3 light tanks!

"Captain, my sniper can't penetrate it from far away." Next to him, sniper Zhao Hong was lying on the ground holding a sniper rifle, aiming at the M3. Judging from the distance reflected by the laser rangefinder, it was still about 3 to meters away. Although the sniper rifle could reach it, at such a long distance, hitting the steel plate of the M was like tickling it!
After all, no matter how thin the M3 armor is, it is still a steel plate!
This is the Rogue Eagle's M3. If it was the M3 modified by Longguo, there would be no possibility of penetrating it.

"The machine guns and cannons on this thing are pretty annoying. If we can take it out from a distance, we should take it out first." Yao Fuhai said, "We don't have time to dig fortifications yet. If we get shot at by this guy, there will probably be a lot of casualties."

After Yao Fuhai finished speaking, he immediately gave the order.

"Everyone else should retreat to the back of the hill, leaving the RPGs and sniper teams ready to fight!"

Now in Yao Fuhai's hands, these two are the only reliable ones that can deal with the M3 tanks.

But no matter which one it is, it seems that you have to get close to succeed, which makes Yao Fuhai somewhat nervous.

Sure enough, the first two M3 light tanks of the Middlesex Battalion approached the top of the hill by 500 meters and began to conduct fire reconnaissance at the top of the hill with machine guns!

Bullets whizzed past the heads of Yao Fuhai and the others!
Yao Fuhai was sweating profusely!

If the 2nd Company had stayed in the front, several soldiers would probably have been sacrificed in this wave of fire reconnaissance.

Unexpectedly, the rogue eagle acted so roguely, relying on the fact that it had plenty of bullets and was not afraid of wasting them, it kept making trouble all the way!

Survived this wave of fire reconnaissance.

Yao Fuhai saw that under the reflection of the car lights, the M3 tank's true face was increasingly revealed, and now it was beginning to enter the killing range of sniper rifles and rocket launchers.

Zhao Hong didn't dare to be careless this time.

Without waiting for the battalion commander's orders, Zhao Hong entered a state of combat readiness.

The road was bumpy and the M3 tanks were bouncing along. Zhao Hong aimed at one of them in the blur.

On the other side, two RPG rocket launcher teams were also ready. They watched the M3 tanks driving towards them nervously, fearing that they would be shot again if they disagreed with them.

Everyone pressed their bodies tightly to the ground.

For a rocket launcher to attack an M3 tank, it is best to get within a range of about 250 meters to achieve a fatal blow!
But Zhao Hong obviously did not wait that long. After the M3 tank entered a short section of flat road, he fired decisively!

The huge recoil force made my shoulder hurt!

But the bullet did not let him down. It penetrated into the M3 tank's cab and killed the Rogue Eagle M3 driver directly, causing the tank to suddenly lose control.

Soon the car ran off the road and overturned!
