Traveling through the sword to engage in military industry.

Jin Kai is the captain of the Falcon Special Forces Brigade. After receiving the combat order, he conducted repeated reconnaissance of the positions on the opposite bank. Since the front of the position was relatively open, it was very difficult to choose a frontal breakthrough. After careful planning, he formulated a bold combat plan.

That night.

The sky was covered with dark clouds. On the front line, Zhang Dabiao's troops were already well prepared and the assault battalion was ready to swim across the river.

As for artillery, more than one hundred cannons have been aimed at preset targets and can fire at any time.

The three assault squadrons of the Falcon Special Forces Brigade took off quietly, circled more than 20 kilometers upstream, and quietly arrived in the southern part of the target area.

The first team of 12 gyroplanes landed first, but their clothes were changed into Rogue Eagle uniforms, and their weapons were also changed into Rogue Eagle's Browning M1918 automatic rifles. Obviously, these were weapons seized from the captured Rogue Eagle troops.

After they landed in the open space behind enemy lines, they quickly assembled into a small team, pretending to be a patrol, and marched towards the coalition checkpoint in a swaggering manner.

The leading few soldiers spoke Eagle language with a pure New Yorker accent, which unaware of the coalition native chicken troops defending the checkpoint. Four native chicken sentries even took the initiative to open the checkpoint door to let the Falcon First Team in. By the time they noticed something wrong with their faces under the light, the assault team members had already been held down by two people, one holding them, and one covering their mouths and twisting their necks hard, and they easily got rid of the sentries.

After being replaced by their own people, they continued to advance to the second checkpoint, and used the same method to wipe out the two lines of defense of the coalition forces, approaching the front line.

But at this time, the distance to a command center fortress suspected to be the enemy's front line was less than 500 meters, and the outline of the fortress could be seen from the dim lights in front.

According to prior reconnaissance and information from the People's Army guerrillas underground, the button to blow up the bridge should be in the hands of a coalition battalion commander in this command fortress.

If this command fortress can be destroyed in one fell swoop, there is a high probability that the enemy will not have the opportunity to blow up the bridge in time.

Therefore, the core of the entire sneak attack plan is to destroy this command fortress before the war starts!
But this is not an easy thing to do.

This command fortress is built of reinforced concrete, and even a 150mm howitzer may not be able to shake it, let alone artillery of other calibers.

"Falcon, Falcon, the hunter is in position. Repeat, the hunter is in position!" After carefully observing the situation at the suspected command fortress on the front line, the captain of the assault team finally confirmed that he was indeed in the right place.

Behind him, two more teams landed and quietly entered the position behind them.

At the first checkpoint ahead, at least five rocket launchers were replaced with fuel-air explosive bombs and aimed at the command fortress in the distance.

However, this is not the end. After they took their positions, a slight roar was heard in the air, and another five rotorcraft quietly approached the sky above the command fortress from the air!
They were seen hovering in the air, also equipped with fuel-air bombs and aiming at the command fortress.

As Jin Kai opened fire, the first wave of 10 fuel-air bombs from the ground and air flew directly towards the target, carrying out a saturation attack!

As the first fuel-air bomb hit the target, a huge fireball suddenly rose up. However, this was just the beginning. After nine consecutive flames rose up around the command fortress, most of the concrete fortress was burned and melted!

It would be difficult to even find intact ashes of the people inside, let alone keep them alive.

As soon as the firing started here, the artillery of the entire front-line position also began to fire according to the predetermined targets, and began to divide the work with the Falcon Special Forces to knock out the various coalition strongholds near the bridge!
The Rogue Eagles and the coalition's defensive forces had no idea that they were also attacked in the rear.

The Falcon Special Forces attacked from the air and the ground, and quickly took control of the front line, controlling both sides of the bridge. They sent people to find the detonation wires of the bridge's explosives, and then called for the artillery fire to stop and allow the assault battalion on the opposite shore to cross the bridge. Since the first wave of assault teams still needed to check for mines on the bridge, the first wave of troops did not progress too quickly, but the bridge was not too long, only about 1000 meters.

Ten minutes later, the assault battalion cleared the obstacles on the bridge and broke through to the south bank.

Then the follow-up troops of the 100th Division continuously crossed the bridge and began to enter the south bank. Guided by the fire on the ground, the Falcon Brigade, like night owls in the sky, launched a ruthless attack on the Rogue Eagle and the fortress of the coalition positions from the air.

The Rogue Eagle never dreamed that there would be an aerial vehicle that could hover more than a hundred meters in the air and launch an attack.

In the darkness of the night, I just felt that I was being attacked from all directions!

The Han River defense line on the western front was completely destroyed overnight.

Zhang Dabiao led the 100th Division to break through to the suburbs of Hancheng, and the 16th Army's tank battalion, heavy artillery regiment and other units all crossed the Han River Bridge and entered the south bank.

This dramatic result made Li Yunlong a little bit unbelievable at first, but Lao Li's greatest strength is to create miracles. Lao Li quickly accepted the results of the Falcon Special Operations Brigade. At the same time, he ordered the Falcon Brigade to immediately gather and hide. On this night, no one saw the Falcon Special Operations Brigade. Those who had seen it had already received lunch boxes, so the secrets of the Falcon Special Operations Brigade were quickly hidden.

This is a new trump card of the 16th Army, and Li Yunlong doesn't want them to expose it so early.

The Jixiang Sanbao Group broke through the frontal defense line and entered the periphery of Hancheng all at once, forming a trend of encircling Hancheng.

Lieutenant General Walker did not dare to delay and immediately initiated the retreat.

The offensive of the Volunteer Army was too fierce. There were only the 25th Infantry Division of Rogue Eagle, the 5th Division of the Southern Army and the puppet army, the 29th Brigade reinforced by John Bull, and the Local Chicken Brigade left in Hancheng. The breakthrough of the Three Lucky Treasures almost wiped out half of these defenders.

Therefore, Lieutenant General Walker had no extra strength to invest in the construction of a new round of defense lines. Under such circumstances, Lieutenant General Walker dared not pin his hopes on the kindness of the Volunteer Army and their reluctance to attack.

The coalition headquarters and logistics departments began to withdraw to the south.

On the front line, the M25 heavy tank unit of the 26th Rogue Eagle Infantry Division and the 29 tanks of the Centurion Heavy Tank Squadron of the 57th Cavalry Regiment of the th John Bull Brigade suffered heavy damage on the battlefield and were defeated by the Dragon Tank I in one fell swoop. As a result, the heavy tanks in the hands of the coalition forces were almost exhausted.

Faced with the overwhelming attack of more than 100,000 troops from the three armies of the Volunteer Army, Lieutenant General Walker, who was already powerless to turn the tide, had no choice but to retreat to preserve the last bit of vitality and seeds of the Eighth Army.

At this point in the battle, there was no point for the Eighth Army to stay in Hancheng. Staying would serve no purpose other than giving Li Yunlong and his men heads.

Because there is no air support now and there are no new reinforcements on the ground.

There was no problem with Lieutenant General Walker's command, but his luck was not very good. During the hasty retreat, the jeep he was riding in overturned, taking Lieutenant General Walker away.

Lieutenant General Walker never dreamed that he would not die under the artillery fire of the Volunteer Army, but died in a car accident during the retreat from the battlefield.
