Chapter 850 The co-leader dare not leave (two chapters in one!)

Noda Nakasa's combat power was already stronger than that of ordinary soldiers. The rest just now allowed him to recover 70% or 80% of his physical strength, which blocked the two cavalry's slashing at him.

Ordinary Japanese only recovered one or two percent of their physical strength during the rest just now, and their reaction speed was much slower than usual due to fatigue. Facing the cavalry who came quickly, they had almost no ability to resist.

Wherever the cavalry went, the Japanese devils turned into corpses.

The Japanese, who had not been targeted by the cavalry, was instantly panicked, and got up from the ground with a terrified look, dragging their tired body to run around the road to vent their panic.

But no matter how they run or where they escape, they cannot escape the pursuit of the cavalry!

More than a thousand cavalrymen harvested more than a thousand Japanese lives in one assault. Wherever they went, the ground was covered with bloody corpses and round heads. All the Japanese living Japanese became stray dogs, running around in the middle of the corpses, without the courage to continue fighting.

Battalion Commander Tao Yongsheng raised his saber and rushed to the front of the team. He raised his sword and fell, and had already cut over three Japanese devils in a row. When he was about to kill the fourth Japanese devil, he had already penetrated the Japanese devils' team, and there was not a Japanese devil in front.

After rushing forward for nearly a hundred meters with inertia, he decisively called the troops to stop.

"The cavalry battalion immediately turned around and fought with squads and platoons as units, and continued to rush to the remaining Japanese on the battlefield! The guard platoon continued to kill with me!"

The cavalry troops who quickly turned around and rushed to the battlefield again.

This time they did not gather together to assault. There were more than a dozen or twenty cavalry teams, and they would assault wherever there were alive Japanese...

In less than twenty minutes, there was no living Japanese on the road stretching more than a thousand meters.

Tao Yongsheng wiped the saber that was still bleeding, moved his arm, which was already a little sore because of continuous swings, and stepped onto the war horse again: "The cavalry troops gather soon, and there are Japanese soldiers in front of us to kill us. Let's continue our efforts and take them down!"

"The wounded stayed to clean the battlefield, and the others followed me in ten minutes..."

At this moment, the Japanese army's subsequent reinforcements did not know that Noda Nakasa had died in battle.

When Noda Nakasa realized the danger, the cavalry battalion had already rushed to him dozens of meters away. In the blink of an eye, the enemy and us were in a melee. The telegrapher was also killed in the first round of assault of the cavalry unit of the National Rescue Army. He had no chance to send a telegram to Taiyuan.

The Japanese soldiers who knew nothing still continued to reinforce Jinzhong according to the order.

Because they carried a large number of heavy weapons, the marching speed was much slower than that of Noda Nakasa. Until Noda Nakasa was killed, they were still marching a few kilometers away.

To deal with such a fully armed force and retaining a lot of physical strength, there are not so many coincidences to take, and it is difficult to eat them in one bite.

"Capital Commander Tao, how do you plan to deal with the Japanese's subsequent reinforcements?" Chen Zhengyu stopped Tao Yongsheng who was about to set off.

The battle just now was mainly cavalry raids. Chen Zhengyu was not a cavalry, nor could he chop on horseback. It was no different from going to the battlefield rashly and dying, so he did not participate in the cavalry raid just now. He waited until the battle was over before entering the battlefield. Then he heard Tao Yongsheng's decision to continue to raid the Japanese's subsequent reinforcements.

Tao Yongsheng didn't think much, and blurted out as Chen Zhengyu said: "Report to the Chief of Staff, I plan to face the enemy head-on according to the original combat plan!"

"The troops were all ambushed in front of the Japanese army. After they got to the vicinity, they suddenly launched an attack, using the cavalry's rapid assault ability to catch the Japanese off guard."

"As long as we can defeat the Japanese formation before they react, the Japanese who are in chaos will become fat meat in our mouths, and eat whatever they want!"

Chen Zhengyu was surprised that you didn't agree and shook his head to refute: "That's the ideal ending. What if the Japanese were not defeated by you and were ready as soon as possible and then blocked your offensive with a light and heavy machine gun?"

"Probably not?" Tao Yongsheng answered hesitantly.

"When we attacked the Japanese here just now, they didn't even have enough strength to resist. We killed half of their troops in one attack. The Japanese behind them, like the Japanese here, all came from Taiyuan, and were affiliated with the same unit, so their combat power should not be much different!"

"We can quickly kill the two thousand Japanese devils here, and we can definitely use the same method to kill the two thousand Japanese devils behind!"

Chen Zhengyu retorted on the spot: "You underestimate the enemy too much!"

"The reason why the cavalry troops can quickly fight and kill the two thousand Japanese devils here is luck. If it weren't for the Japanese devils here that did not carry heavy weapons, the soldiers were too tired because of the continuous marching, and they didn't even have the strength to hold guns, and they were lying on the ground to rest, with very low vigilance and no warning posts arranged, which created a chance for us to raid them at close range, do you think the cavalry battalion can kill Japanese devils here so easily?"

Tao Yongsheng was speechless when Chen Zhengyu asked, and had to bite the bullet and answer: "Chief of Staff, you are right. We are indeed lucky to win this battle!"

Seeing that Tao Yongsheng accepted his opinion, Chen Zhengyu was not too worried about this issue, otherwise he would definitely be ashamed of being said by himself.

Looking at Tao Yongsheng's words, he continued to ask: "Then do you think the Cavalry Battalion will have such good luck in raiding the Japanese reinforcements?"

Tao Yongsheng seemed to have thought of something, suddenly reacted from shame, looked at Chen Zhengyu with a gleeful expression and replied: "Thank you, Chief of Staff, you are right, we will definitely not have such good luck in the next battle!"

"The investigator reported that although the Japanese reinforcements were also two infantry brigades, they carried a large number of heavy weapons and controlled the marching speed well, which caused the troops to consume not much physical strength."

"And they are also very vigilant. They not only sent forward troops, but also arranged a lot of scouts and guard posts around the team. If we use the old method to raid these Japanese, we will definitely expose our target very early. No matter how fast the raid speed is, we can only kill their raid troops."

"As for killing their main force in one go, it is very difficult and it will pay a huge price that we cannot bear!"

After realizing the situation, the confident smile on Tao Yongsheng's face disappeared, and his expression became more and more serious.

Seeing Chen Zhengyu looking thoughtful, he quickly asked with anticipation: "Chief of Staff, have you thought of a way to crack down on these Japanese devils?"

Chen Zhengyu did not nod or deny it. He analyzed in response to Tao Yongsheng's expectant gaze: "The subsequent reinforcements of the Japanese were well equipped and very vigilant. The frontal assault of the cavalry battalion not only could not defeat them, but would be severely damaged by them and ended up with a loss-winning ending."

"My idea is to try to avoid confronting the Japanese head-on, defeat them at the minimum cost, and then launch continuous raids on their retreat path, consume their troops with mobile warfare, and kill as much as the Japanese can."

"We will choose this battlefield to defeat the Japanese, so that the Japanese reinforcements will know that we have the strength to eat two thousand of them in a short period of time, and we will be afraid of us!"

"After the Japanese saw the corpses here, all the cavalry battalions were dispatched and launched assaults from different directions, with a momentum to attack, and they were posing as if we were going to wipe out them all."

"After the assault begins, we will fight if we have the opportunity and retreat if we don't have the opportunity. We must control the casualties of the troops and must not fight head-on with the Japanese light and heavy machine guns!"

"If the Japanese army is scared away by our bluff, the cavalry troops will immediately start pursuing, act freely in companies, intercepting and killing the Japanese to retreat."

"If a cavalry company can leave behind a hundred Japanese, the cavalry units can leave at least eight or nine hundred Japanese. Maybe they can cut off all their artillery and heavy machine gun troops!"

"If the Japanese are not scared away, we will find a way to fight them head-on and stop them from reinforcement of Jinzhong!"

Chen Zhengyu's proposal must be better than having to fight the Japanese head-on when he came up, and Tao Yongsheng agreed without hesitation.

An hour later, the Japanese army's subsequent reinforcements appeared at the end of the road.

More than a hundred Japanese, holding torches and guns, spreading in battle formations and advancing quickly.

After arriving at the battlefield, more than a hundred Japanese were obviously scared by the corpses on the road. After a while, someone rushed towards the main force behind.

"Sir, something happened! Something happened to the first and second infantry brigades!" The messenger who was ordered to go back to report was impatient. When he saw the commander of the team leader, he shouted at the top of his voice, for fear that others would not hear it.

The captain of the regiment thought he had heard it wrong and cursed without hesitation: "Bageyalu, what are you talking nonsense? Don't you know if you want to go to the military court if you lie about military information? Shut up immediately?"

"The first and second brigades have nearly two thousand people, and they are marching in front of us, less than ten kilometers apart. If something really happens, can we not hear the sound of gunfire?"

After being scolded by the corps leader, the messenger felt very aggrieved.

The first reaction was to tell the brigade captain that he did not lie about military information, and stood in front of the brigade captain to continue reporting: "Sir, what Bei Zhi said just now is true. The squadron leader asked me to report that one or two brigades were attacked by unknown enemies on the road ahead, and nearly two thousand imperial troops were all killed in battle. Their bodies were all on the road, and the blood had not completely solidified. If you don't believe it, you can go and see it yourself!"

"This is impossible!" The corps leader still did not believe the messenger's report.

In his eyes, this was incredible.

I was less than ten kilometers apart from the first and second brigades, and it took only more than an hour to march in a hurry.

Logically, when the two sides are four or five kilometers apart, the sound of firefighting between the first and second brigades and the enemy can reach their ears.

But the troops did not hear any gunfire or explosions along the way, which means that the first and second brigades were attacked for no more than half an hour. When the two sides were left with four or five kilometers apart and the sound of fire exchange could be heard, the battle that occurred on the first and second brigades was just over.

Although the National Salvation Army is very powerful, their main forces are attacking Jinzhong, so they will definitely not be able to distribute too many troops to fight aid. No matter from any aspect, they will never be able to eat one or two brigades in just half an hour.

The messenger didn't expect the corps leader to be so stubborn. He didn't believe it even when he said this, so he could only continue to report: "The bodies of the first, two or two brigades are right in front. If you don't believe it, you can go and see it yourself. Bei Zhi dares to use his head to guarantee the report just now!"

"The road more than a thousand meters long is full of imperial army corpses. I saw it with my own eyes and would never be mistaken. Please give it a clarification from the superior!"

"Then let's go now!" The convoy's insistence forced the corps leader to give up the obsession that the first and second brigades could not have any problems. In order to see the evidence mentioned by the convoy sooner, he pulled the reins of the war horse and rushed forward after giving the order.

The captain and the guards had not yet reached the destination, smelled a strong smell of blood. After joining the forward squadron, the road ahead was not only the corpse but also the corpse. The picture was even more tragic than he had imagined. He was so excited that he almost loaded it off the horse's back.

Looking at the squadron leader of the forward squadron who was coming, he asked calmly: "You are sure that the bodies on the road belong to the first or second brigades!"

"Hayi!"

The squadron leader could feel that the corps leader was very angry now. In order to avoid causing fire, he could only answer carefully: "I checked it out and they were all soldiers from the first and second brigades, with almost two thousand corpses. We found the body of Captain Noda, which was cut to death by a sabre!"

"Judged by the traces left by the enemy on the battlefield, the first and second brigades were defeated by a cavalry unit. Before the troops could counterattack, they were severely damaged by the cavalry and then destroyed!"

Hearing the word "cavalry", the captain of the regiment was frightened and sweated coldly on his back. He stared at a pair of shock and puzzled eyes and continued to ask: "Can you see how many cavalry units the National Salvation Army has dispatched!"

"They can eat nearly two thousand troops of the first and second brigade in less than half an hour, and they must have eaten us too!"

"No, maybe the cavalry troops sent by the National Salvation Army are already staring at us around and attacking us at any time!"

"Hurry up and notify the main force behind and ask them to come here to meet with me immediately. The troops must also strengthen their vigils. All light machine guns are loaded with bullets, and heavy machine guns are ready to participate in the battle at any time!"

"If there are really cavalry attacking us, the light and heavy machine guns must fire and block them as soon as possible. They must not be allowed to approach the highway, otherwise no matter how many troops we have, they will not be enough for them to massacre!"

"The radio operator contacted the Taiyuan Command immediately. The first and second brigade was intercepted by the cavalry of the National Rescue Army and the entire army was destroyed. Should we continue to reinforce Jinzhong!"

"If you want, please continue to send troops to reinforce us!"

The commander who followed the commander of the regiment immediately received the order. As soon as he was about to run back, the sound of horse hooves that the regiment leader didn't want to hear came.

The sound was very small at the beginning, but it became louder and louder after four or five seconds. The road under my feet began to tremble, and I felt the sound of horse hooves everywhere.

"Around Bageya Road, there were indeed cavalry troops of the National Salvation Army staring at us and immediately moved closer to the main force. The troops immediately established a temporary defense line, and the light and heavy machine guns were ready to shoot. When they saw the National Salvation Army's cavalry troops, they opened fire and blocked them at all costs!"

"Everyone, go!"
