Chapter 1236： Surrounding the 1st Cavalry Division

However, Major General George didn't know that he didn't even have the chance to break the wrist of the strong man.

There are four bridges in Laredo, including a railway bridge, and these bridges are now guarded by officers and men of the 2nd Battalion, 5th Cavalry Regiment, 1st Cavalry Brigade.

Of course they know the importance of these bridges. Although they are called cavalry divisions, they are fully reloaded troops. The gas turbines of those m1 tanks are all monsters that drink oil. They must have sufficient logistical supplies to ensure that Their combat effectiveness, and at the same time, once the situation ahead changes, these bridges are also the only way for their troops to retreat.

Battalion Commander Major Bett, sitting in a Bradley infantry fighting vehicle, smoking his own cigarette, this task is actually very boring.

Are the Mexicans going to attack the bridge over here? It is very unlikely that this battalion of my own is a machine-infantry battalion, and it is also loaded with live ammunition, especially with a large number of portable individual anti-tank missiles. One of my own teachers has already been beaten! At this time, it is almost impossible for the Mexican army to cross the line of defense of its own cavalry division and rush here.

The whole battalion's officers and soldiers have this idea. Therefore, although they accepted the combat mission, they did not make much preparations. They set up checkpoints on the roads on both sides of the bridge head, armed with guns, and guarded there.

With the beginning of the war, ordinary people on the border have long since disappeared! How can anyone pass the border without long eyes?

It's so boring!

"These bridges of ours are quite sturdy. Even if an ordinary 155mm howitzer hits accurately, it will take more than a dozen shells to completely blow up the bridge." Bette said: "Even if it is a cruise missile. , and it blew up a section at most, and it can be repaired soon."

The weapons of the Soviets will definitely greet you. If it is a laser weapon in space, no one can. However, laser weapons are not suitable for equipment such as bridges. Easy to pick up again!

As for the other weapons that come, we are not afraid of it!

"If you want to blow up these bridges completely, there is only one way to bury explosives under the bridges and on each pier, so that the bridges can be completely destroyed." Another soldier said.

Hearing this, in an instant, Bet was shocked and stood up from the armored car: "What did you say?"

"It would be much more convenient to bury explosives on the piers," the soldier said.

"Quick, check the bridge piers immediately!" Bette said, "Damn, I hope these Mexicans don't do it so hard! These bridges were built with the money of American taxpayers!"

And, if the Mexicans were really ambitious, they would certainly use these bridges as springboards to attack Texas!

Quick, check the piers! The American soldier who was still lazy just now jumped up from his position and checked the bridge piers!

Unfortunately, it's still too late!

When the armed helicopter rushed towards the 1st Cavalry Division on the battlefield over there, the action started here too!

"Boom!" The explosion was extremely violent, and the ground shook! With the explosion of this sound, I saw that on the bridge in the distance, the piers suddenly raised countless dust, flying high, and the bridge decks on both sides were also followed, and they were bombed to the sky!

Damn, what are you afraid of, what are you doing! Who would have thought that when the Mexicans were retreating, they had already buried explosives here!

On the bridge, there is also a supply convoy driving! With the violent explosion, a row of cars on the high-flying bridge flew up, and then overturned into the river!

The scene is extremely spectacular, because this is just the beginning!

One after another, the explosion sounded continuously! One by one, the piers exploded, and the bridge deck was destroyed one by one. The bridge was completely impassable!

"Quickly, report to the division headquarters and ask the engineer troops to come over and build the bridge urgently!" Battalion commander Bet shouted, he was extremely anxious, these explosions cost him more than a dozen people, and at the same time, he had a hunch that the division headquarters Over there, big trouble!

"What? What did you say?" Major General George's ears were rumbled by the sound of the explosion. Behind a bunker, he listened to his adjutant and couldn't believe it.

The bridge behind was blown up! When the Mexicans were retreating, they buried explosives on it in advance!

"Damn it!" Major General George's face turned pale. At this time, those arrogant helicopter gunships had already flown away, leaving a horrible position. At the same time, the surrounding area had begun to roil, and the tank troops of the Moses had already come up!

At this time, it is not only the problem of not being able to rescue the 2nd Brigade, but even the entire cavalry division of one's own side may be eaten! As long as the Mexicans attack for a few hours, their tanks will run out of gas and their back roads will be cut off. Do they want to surrender again and become prisoners? This is simply a shame to the flag of the 1st Cavalry Division!

Forward Forward, we are proud tank divisions, we are the most powerful armed forces in Argentina, we will destroy the evil Americans!

The Argentine 3rd Armored Division started up with a rumble. They have been holding back for a long time. Now, finally, their goal is here! American 1st Cavalry Division!

If it was in the past, Argentina would never take the initiative to provoke the United States, and even all previous governments of Argentina were pro-American. However, the war in the Malvinas Islands made Argentina's position completely reversed to the Soviet Union. It's a wise choice, see now, the Soviet, is already the strongest on this planet!

The engine of the t-72 tank, rumbling, the 125mm tank gun, is preparing to shoot its own sharp blow!

At the same time, the news that the 1st Cavalry Division was besieged also spread to the rear.

In the capital of Texas, when he heard the news, Governor Perry stood up from his seat in an instant: "Now, with the strength of our Texas, we can no longer control the situation in the south, and we must ask the federal government for help. , ask the troops of our nearby states to come and support us."

Texas, the most southern state, was on the front line of the Mexican army's offensive, and now the most important and powerful 1st Cavalry Division was surrounded and in extreme danger, making them feel When it comes to fear, ask for reinforcements from nearby states!

The closest one is New Mexico, but now, New Mexico is also at risk of being attacked at any time, so it can only be temporarily drawn from the relatively stable northern states!

Defend your country! Although the top level is still in chaos, the U.S. military has finally recovered some signs of normal operation.

However, it is still in danger!
