Bayamo's reinforcements were 300 U.S. troops, and more than 1,000 political axe troops arrived at Yala, about a dozen kilometers away from Manzani.

At this time, the sky was not yet dawn, and the surrounding area was pitch black, and the US army was quite cautious, sending four M2 medium tanks with three hundred political axe troops to test forward. They don't want to be stopped.

In charge of Yala's frontal position was Choi Guangyi's group. He took with him a hundred elite of the advance army who had just arrived and six hundred new soldiers of the independent army. They are the first stop in the blockade.

After Cui Guangyi received the report that the enemy had arrived, he ordered in a low voice: "Kill the tanks, don't worry about the infantry." ”

"Yes!"

The lurking warrior in front whispered his order, and then reached for the rumbling heavy tank.

The M2 tank is the main battle tank of the U.S. Army, but compared to the N3 that was modified after receiving the technical support of the British drama, it is a little bit worse from time to time, in the eyes of other countries, at this time the M2 is also remarkable, but in the eyes of the advance army, they are stronger than the Japanese Peeding tank only weighs more, has more machine guns, and is actually a combat vehicle.

It doesn't even take an iron fist to penetrate them, and a grenade alone can scrap it. The defense looks bulky and is actually still a scum.

However, whether the gun grenade will be used, Cui Guangyi received an order to make the enemy dare not attack, gather here, and wait for the troops behind.

Several fighters successively touched the position of the road where the tanks on the road must pass, stopped no more than fifty meters from the road, took up their iron fists in the grass and aimed them at their respective targets, and pulled the trigger at the sound of an order.

The 300 political axe army was slowly moving forward behind the four tanks, and when they were carefully guarding their surroundings, suddenly, a fire lit up on the side, illuminating the dark night.

Is that......

Everyone was startled, and looked at that side with a gun in his waist. Watching the object dragging the flames fly, I don't know what it is.

At this moment, four iron fist warheads hit four tanks almost simultaneously.

Rumble!

An explosion that almost synthesized violently rang out, and then the tank suddenly brightened like fireworks, spurting flames everywhere and struggling to move forward two steps. And it stopped there, burning fiercely.

The violent explosion did not hurt the Cuban political axe army that followed behind, but none of them were standing at this time, and they all lay on the ground one after another, looking at the steel giant beast in front of them in amazement.

"Enemy attack!! Shoot!! ”

The commander who led the team reacted first, screaming in horror and pulling the trigger at the location where the fire was lit.

The crisp sound of gunfire made the stunned soldiers wake up, and they pulled the trigger at the position that had fallen into darkness.

All of a sudden, there was a loud banging of gunfire, and bullets flew around without a target. But they all flew in the direction where the fire flashed just now.

Unfortunately, before they could shoot, the warriors had already thrown down the useless iron fist backseat and quietly felt back, and by the time the shots rang out, they had already left the place and disappeared into the darkness.

The U.S. troops behind saw that they were blocked, and immediately set up positions. Forward surrounding. They knew that the enemy was already in sight.

But they rushed to the blazing flames. When the tank that had exploded again was nearby, the commander could not help shouting: "Stop shooting!!" Stupid guys stop shooting!! ”

All the Cuban political axes stopped in a daze, lying there not knowing what to do.

The commander of the American army looked at the darkness in front of him and asked, "What is the place ahead?" ”

"Report sir, ahead is Yara, about 15 kilometers from Manzani."

The position is ahead!

The American commander lay there and came to a conclusion.

"Attack on the spot!"

Having concluded that, he immediately ordered.

The Cuban officer scrimmed to his feet. Courageously gave the order to attack.

Cui Guangyi was not in a hurry on the position. They have plenty of ammunition, and there are thirty artillery pieces, ten self-propelled guns, not to mention the attack of a thousand people, even if the army comes to attack. He wasn't worried.

In less than five minutes, the forward observation post returned to its position, whispered about the situation, and the enemy began to attack.

Cui Guangyi glanced at the nervous soldiers of the Independent Army in the dark, and smiled very understandingly. They also came from this time, although most of them don't understand English, but as long as they do it, they can give these rookies confidence.

A few English-speaking men kept running around the trenches, repeating orders in whispers, which made the Cuban Independence Army feel a little more at ease.

As the enemy approached, everyone stared nervously ahead, clenching their guns tightly.

100 meters, 50 meters, 30 meters......

Seeing the figure that could already be cleaned, Cui Guangyi raised the semi-automatic order, and then pulled the trigger.

Touch!

The crisp sound of gunfire sounded the horn of the attack, and the recruits on the position jumped in and reflexively pulled the trigger, not knowing where the bullets had gone, and then nervously released their fingers again and fired a second bullet at the front.

The advance troops were different for the time being, and they fired accurately, killing at least one person in the family before the enemy lay down, and even two or three shots.

The enemy hula fell, and those who were still alive immediately retreated in horror and fought back, which was a joke.

That's when poof! The position suddenly brightened, a flare rose into the sky, and then the gunfire became more intensive, and before the locals behind it were screened, there was not much to breathe, and then, those who were still alive were stimulated by the death of their comrades around them, and they even rolled and crawled down.

The flares fell slowly, illuminating the position of their own position, and also illuminating the enemy's position more than 300 meters away in the distance, where the flames had not been completely extinguished.

Da Da ......

The U.S. troops pulled the trigger in the chaos of the figures and fired at the positions that could already be seen, providing fire support to the attacking troops. But as soon as their tongues of fire erupted, they were dumbfounded, and the machine gunner was shot in the head.

The burst of gunfire stopped abruptly as the flares disappeared. The position on the side of the American army immediately fell silent, and when the dozen or so political axe troops who desperately fled back entered the position, they did not fire again.

"One row and two rows rush forward to clean the battlefield, and the action is fast!"

Cui Guangyi knew that the other party's artillery had not yet arrived, and at the moment when the gunfire stopped and fell into darkness again, he ordered.

One left and one right, dozens of advance army soldiers felt out of the position like raccoon cats, carrying empty backpacks, carrying pistols and pounced on the corpses in front, quickly putting away those bullets and guns, and completing the action of cleaning up the battlefield in two or three minutes.

"Battalion commander, it's 7.62 bullets and M1 Garand."

A platoon commander whispered to Cui Guangyi.

"Bullets go down, pay attention to the artillery!"

Cui Guangyi looked at the darkness in front of him and ordered in a low voice.

The U.S. military didn't know how many people there were in the darkness of the road, and he didn't dare to be careless if he had suffered nearly three hundred casualties here just a few minutes ago.

"Build a position, scouts rush forward in a roundabout way!"

He gave the most correct order at this time.

With the order, the scouts protruded left and right and searched the front to find out the situation of the enemy's position.

At the same time, send a telegram to the troops in the distance to ask for help, and no longer dare to attack.

On the sea, at this time the battleships were sailing rapidly, they were already not far from Manzani, but they did not attack. They learned that the three battleships in the harbor were already under the control of the enemy, so instead of rashly attacking, they waited for the arrival of the other two destroyers.

Reinforcements from the other direction, Rio Cuautto, halted their advance and rounded the mountains towards Yara. They knew that scattered attacks would not be effective, and they had to twist into a rope and concentrate on breaking through. Moreover, the direction of Yala is also the direction of the subsequent large army, where they will make the decisive battle.

In the rear, it was learned that the enemy had not yet taken Manzanillo, but had set up an interception position on the periphery of Manzanillo, so he ordered to assemble and wait for dawn, otherwise the enemy's weapon, which might be an iron fist, would destroy all the tanks that could not see in the dark. They wouldn't have night vision devices, otherwise they wouldn't have been so careful.

Reinforcements had approached, and the gunfire in Manzanillo, which had been fighting for most of the night, had become sparse, but flares continued to rise, reflecting each other in the darkness of the early morning, preventing the enemy from entering the camp and losing the last of his positions.

Johnton fell in love with each other when the casualties in the camp were only caused by stray bullets and the losses were not large, and he felt a lot more at ease. Although he didn't understand why the opponent's battleships didn't carry out artillery bombardment, he couldn't even hold out for twenty minutes, but he didn't think too much about it, just counted the ammunition in his hand and held out until dawn in the order.

Compared with the excitement here, Dong Ku and No. 5 and No. 6 are ready, waiting for the attack after dawn, as long as all the reinforcements enter the net, encircle the point to send reinforcements, and the strategy of moving the tiger away from the mountain will be fully implemented. Eat these and they have enough ammunition and territory. When the new airship brought in the shells, they had the capital to fight the US army, and began to attack the north, dragging the US army into land to strangle, so that the United States could not escape. Even aid is not taken care of.

As Dong Ku expected, the American reinforcements were blocked, Manzanillo had not been lost, the army did not rush forward, but began to assemble, began to wipe out the construction of artillery positions, the planes at the airfield began to prepare, and as soon as the day dawned, the offensive began.

At this time, the airport has been lurking with Huya warriors, and the San Diego airport is constantly being hunted by peripheral personnel, sharp knives, and it is not far from the busy airport center. The pilots who were still resting probably didn't have a chance to board the plane, because they were already on the edge of the sharp knives, and the Huya warriors had already touched into the barracks in the light and started the slaughter.

Controlling the airfield is the beginning of the offensive, and at dawn, there is no chance to return to the reinforcements rushed to Manzanillo, not all of them are left behind, and it is estimated that it is not much worse, where is there still a chance to return reinforcements?
