Chapter 93 The U.S. military's superb logistics equipment capabilities are amazing

On December 1, when the Eastern Front Campaign had just launched, the 20th Army of the Volunteer Army sent a small group of troops to blow up the Shuimen Bridge that the US military was going to pass.But the American engineers quickly shipped some bridge equipment, repaired it and continued to use it. On December 4, the Volunteers blew up the Shuimen Bridge for the second time.The U.S. Corps of Engineers soon flew in bridge parts and built a steel rutted bridge.Volunteer soldiers attacked the bridge again, blowing up the bridge and its foundation. To the surprise of the Volunteers, the U.S. Air Force actually shipped a batch of 8 sets of rut bridge components weighing 1.1 tons from Japan and dropped them on the U.S. military positions.In less than two days, American engineers erected another large steel bridge with a load of 50 tons, which can pass all the equipment of the retreating troops.

It was precisely because of being able to pass the Watergate Bridge smoothly that the troops led by Smith could continue to flee to Hamhung.Such a huge industrial manufacturing capacity and advanced level really amazes us. Even today, some countries in the world may not be able to achieve it. The 1st Division of the U.S. Marine War finally fled to Hamhung.The history of the US military said: "In the history of the Marine Corps, there has never been such tragic hardship and hardship. This is simply a trip to hell." Within 10 days, the US military retreated 300 kilometers to the south.
