"Boom!" A large-caliber naval artillery shell exploded, creating a huge crater in the ground, and the shock wave carried dirt and debris flying in all directions, including shrapnel, and all the American and Filipino soldiers within the shell's kill radius were killed. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info At this moment, regardless of their nationality, skin color and beliefs, they are all the same, that is, they were torn to pieces by the terrifying cannon.

"God forbid, bless the Chinese shells will not fall on our heads." An American soldier prayed secretly. However, in the next second, a 155-mm shell fell into this trench, killing dozens of American and Filipino soldiers in the trench.

Not only was the Imperial Navy shelling the US-Philippine forces, but the 144 self-propelled howitzers of the 16th Heavy Artillery Brigade of the Imperial Army, the artillery regiments of the 76th Infantry Division of the Army, and the artillery regiments of the 6th and 7th Marine Divisions were also joined. Shells of various calibers, as if they didn't want money, frantically poured down on the positions of the US troops, taking away fresh lives one by one.

In the sky, carrier-based aircraft from the Imperial Navy's aircraft carriers "Changbaishan" and "Culai Mountain" also began to bomb the US-Philippine forces. Dozens of torpedo planes carried out horizontal bombing missions, dropping bombs one after another at an altitude of 2,000 meters. Anyway, the US-Philippine forces are crowded together, and the accuracy of the bomb delivery is not guaranteed, as long as the bomb is dropped, it can kill a lot of US-Philippine soldiers.

Fighter planes are constantly using winged aviation machine guns to strafe the US-Philippine forces, and often a single strafing shot can knock over a lot of US-Philippine soldiers. Although the US-Philippine forces are also returning fire with anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns, their return fire often attracts more bombs. Those dive bombers in the sky are staring at the anti-aircraft weapons of the US military, and as soon as the anti-aircraft fire is fired, they will immediately launch an attack and destroy these anti-aircraft fire. Soon, the anti-aircraft weapons of the United States and the Philippines were almost destroyed, and they could only be bombed by the carrier-based aircraft of the Imperial Navy.

The Imperial Navy's carrier-based aircraft did not stop bombing the US-Filipino forces until nightfall, but the naval guns and army artillery did not stop, and continued to tilt their shells towards the US-Philippine forces. The artillery of the United States and the Philippines had been almost destroyed during the day's fighting. The artillery was blown to scrap metal, and the artillerymen suffered heavy casualties. This made them powerless in the face of the artillery bombardment of the Imperial Army.

If at this time there are still people who say that the Chinese * army is vulnerable and has poor weapons and equipment. The U.S. soldiers who are in the midst of torment will definitely slap a few of them with big mouths. The firepower of the Chinese* army has reached such a point, is this still bad? Even the U.S. Imperial Army, which prides itself on being a local tyrant, may not be able to compare with the Imperial Army in this regard.

Of course, this is definitely not a good thing for the American soldiers who are being ravaged by the fire of the Imperial Army and Navy. The shelling of the Chinese* army is endless, and almost every shell that falls, taking the lives of some soldiers. Of course, it's just a matter of more and less.

"Bastard, I can't go on like this. If the Chinese shelling continues, we will all be killed by them. Major General Davidson said exasperatedly.

But is there any other way for us to do it than to hold on? The Chinese have already strengthened the outer encirclement, and they still have a large number of armored units to watch. If we launch a breakthrough, I am afraid that they will be crushed before we succeed. Major General George said.

"Damn it!" Major General Davidson cursed, and other than that, he didn't know what to vent his anger and dissatisfaction.

From the afternoon to the evening, the continuous shelling of the Chinese* army caused a lot of casualties to the US-Philippine coalition forces. Thousands of people were killed in the shelling alone. In addition, there are a large number of wounded soldiers who are not treated, and it will not be long before they are taken away by God because of excessive blood loss or lack of effective medical treatment.

Finally, night fell. The US-Filipino coalition originally thought that the shelling by the Chinese* army would stop at night. However, their hopes were ultimately disappointed. At night, although the Chinese* army reduced the intensity of the shelling, it did not stop the shelling at all, which caused many American soldiers and Filipino soldiers to be killed by shells in their sleep and lose their lives.

The night of September 5 was a complete torment for the US-Philippine coalition forces, and it was really a bit of a year-old feeling. When the early morning sun shone on the ground, the soldiers of the US-Filipino coalition found that their defense area was already full of large and small craters. Obviously, this is all the work of the Chinese * army last night. Around these craters, there are many stumps and severed arms. Because of the hot weather, maggots were already surging on some of the broken corpses. The flies are flying around, and they obviously like the environment.

"Oh God! What the hell is this place? Is it hell? Many soldiers of the US-Philippine coalition saw this scene, and their faces turned pale with fright. There are even many people who are already lying on the ground and vomiting.

Of course, this is just the beginning. As the sky dawned, the Empire* army's offensive against the United States and the Philippines began again. One after another, carrier-based planes flew over the US-Philippine forces and began bombing them, and the shells that rained down took away the lives of the US-Philippine soldiers and hit their morale even more, making the US-Philippine soldiers whose morale was not high even more show signs of collapse.

"Boom." The 16th Armored Brigade of the Imperial Army began to cover the attack of the Imperial Army and Marines on the defense area of the United States and the Philippines, further compressing their living space.

After a night of shelling, the US-Filipino forces were already suffering heavy losses. Coupled with low morale and extreme fatigue, it was simply unable to resist the attack of the Empire* army.

"Crunch! Crunch! ”

A Leopard 2 tank ran over at high speed, crushing several Filipino soldiers who had no time to dodge into minced meat. The American soldiers who saw this scene had their faces as earth-colored. When the turret of the tank turned and the muzzle of the black hole was aimed at these American soldiers, they subconsciously raised their hands and chose to surrender to the Imperial* army. Clearly, these Americans have been scared.

The power of example is endless, and more and more Americans, desperate, are choosing to surrender to the Imperial* army.

Although, it is a shame to surrender. However, at least their lives can be saved. This is completely understandable for Westerners who value life very seriously.

As for those Filipinos, even the American masters have surrendered, what are they holding onto? Although, the war broke out on their soil. However, these Filipinos clearly do not have the sense to defend their country. There is an essential difference between it and the fact that later generations jumped up and down all over the world for the sake of a few small islands, instigated by the United States and Japan, and looked for China's faults.

The continuous compression of the space for the activities of the US-Filipino coalition forces has also made their armies more and more concentrated, which has given the Imperial Navy and naval aviation, as well as the Imperial Army artillery better targets. After all, the more crowded they are, the more effective the shells and bombs can be, and the more efficient they are at killing the Americans and Filipinos.

In the temporary headquarters of the US-Philippine forces, Major General George and Major General Davidson looked very decadent. Just now officers have already reported to them that a large number of American and Filipino soldiers have surrendered to the Chinese. They simply can't stop it. In such a critical situation, it is understandable that those soldiers would want to live. Even the two generals were about to lose confidence.

"George, it's not the way to go. It seems that we will not hold out until the moment when General MacArthur's reinforcements arrive. Maj. Gen. Davidson said.

Major General George did not say a word, but, in fact, he thought so. The Chinese* army was able to wipe them out with just a lot of firepower. What's more, now the Chinese* army is still advancing, compressing their space for maneuver, which makes them even more unable to hold out for long.

"Davidson, what do you mean? Is it to surrender like the Chinese? I can't do that. George shook his head.

"George, listen to me, we've done our best in this war. However, the strength of the Chinese is too strong, and we are fighting the Chinese far from the United States, and we have no chance of winning at all. We've done our duty, and now we should find a way to bring those lads back. "Davidson tried to persuade Major General George, but it was clearly to no avail.

At 11 a.m., the 16th Rocket Artillery Brigade of the Imperial Army went to the front, and 144 rocket artillery vehicles were aimed at the defense zone of the United States and the Philippines. With the commander's order, a dense stream of rockets flew towards the positions of the US-Philippine forces.

"Whew! Shout! Shout! ”

With a whistling sound, one rocket after another flew at high speed towards the position of the US-Philippine coalition forces with orange-red tail flames.

In an instant, the entire position of the US-Philippine forces was covered. A large number of officers and men of the United States and the Philippines were killed and wounded, and there was a wail on the battlefield. Major General Davidson and Major General George, who were hiding in the temporarily dug headquarters, were even more stunned.

"Did the Chinese hide their strength before? They clearly used thousands of heavy artillery pieces to bombard us. Maj. Gen. Davidson exclaimed.

A hint of despair flashed in Major General George's eyes, and he knew that he couldn't hold on no matter what now.

"Davidson, maybe you're right. Just surrender to the Chinese, as you said. George said dejectedly, and walked out of the headquarters.

Davidson nodded.

He then heard a gunshot rang out, and when he ran out, he found Major General George lying on the ground with a hole punched in his temple, apparently given himself a shot. (To be continued.) )
