Chapter 202 Chen Ziyun mistakenly fights the puppet cavalry
"Brigade, retreat quickly. If you don't retreat, the 358th Regiment will be completely annihilated in Qicun Town."
"The puppet Mongolian army has a large number of cavalry troops. They are good at fighting on horseback. The brigade headquarters may be attacked by cavalry at any time."
"The defense deployment of Qicun Town has been breached. If you don't evacuate quickly, we will all be killed by Liquid Ming."
Qian Bojun had already brought the regiment personnel to the brigade headquarters. When he saw Chu Yunfei, he said with worry on his face.
Chu Yunfei's brigade headquarters has been moved to the area south of Qicun Town. This means clearly that he wants to personally supervise the battle.
Chu Yunfei also knew about the frontline combat situation. He knew that the 358th Regiment's battle at Chiangqi was not going well.
Can you see that Qian Bojun, as the commander of the regiment, evacuated without permission? Chu Yunfei showed an unhappy expression on his face.
Especially Qian Bojun, who kept begging for evacuation and said anything like asking for the destruction of the entire army, he was even more angry.
"Captain Qian, I am the acting commander of the 358th Regiment. I am asked to command operations on the front line."
"The position is about to be breached. Instead of commanding from the front line, I evacuate without authorization and continue to confuse the morale of the troops."
"If I don't do that, he can shoot me on the spot as a warning to others!"
Chu Yunfei looked at Qian Bojun and said with displeasure.
Does Qian Bojun want to be low-key, so as to continue to gain Chu Yunfei's confidence and continuously increase his price tag?
Can you hear Chu Yunfei scolding him directly to his face, and even saying something about begging him to be shot?
This made him very dissatisfied, so he couldn't help but refute it.
"Commander Chen Ziyun unified the command of all ministries in operations, but he could not directly hide in the high ground on the west side and conduct the command."
"The pinzi formation is deployed for defense. It turns out that the Yue puppet army broke through the position within two or three east."
"Master, he is guilty of death. Doesn't Commander Chen Ziyun, the commander in charge, deny that he deserves death?"
Qian Bojun looked at Chu Yunfei and said with unconvinced expression.
Chu Yunfei frowned and glanced at Qian Bojun coldly.
"Brigade, I just got the news that Commander Chen Ziyun has quickly gone to the front line to take command."
At that time, Fang Ligong reported softly.
"Chief of Staff Fang, even Chen Ziyun is invincible!"
"The defeat of Qicun Town has been determined. Can Chen Ziyun go over and turn the tide?"
"He may not think so. Brigade, the defeat of Qicun Town is not his fault alone. Please treat everyone equally and deal with it fairly."
Qian Bojun looked at Fang Ligong and emphasized the words "Chief of Staff Fang" with a sarcastic tone.
Fang Ligong knew whether Qian Bojun was an old man who had followed Chu Yunfei for many years, so he would naturally not argue with him.
Chu Yunfei snorted coldly, ignored Qian Bojun, and paid attention to the battle situation on the front line.
At around four o'clock, the fifth battalion attacked from the flank, and a force of 400 men launched an offensive operation to attack the Japanese flank troops.
The four Liao-made field guns did not provide direct support for them, and they did make some progress there.
The little devils focused their attention on Qicun Town and did not expect that troops would attack from the flanks.
The 1st Independent Infantry Brigade quickly assembled and began to attack the 5th Battalion on the west side.
Those little devils obviously overestimated their capabilities. After the battle, their 800-man troop had already suffered dozens of casualties.
A force of more than 700 people would not have much advantage when facing a force of 400 people in the 5th Battalion.
What's more, four field guns were stationed east of Zhou Wenbo's command and continued to provide artillery support.
"Da da da."
"Bah bang bang."
"Tu tu tu tu."
The soldiers of the fifth battalion were commanded by Wu Ziqiang and assembled submachine guns and light and heavy machine guns to launch fire.
A large number of little Japs were hit by intensive firepower as they advanced and were killed directly.
The four field guns continuously fired shells to attack the little Japanese.
The First Independent Infantry Brigade instantly suffered dozens of casualties, and the Major Captain was forced to stop the attack and defend on the spot.
At the same time, the artillery unit of the fourth brigade, which was independently formed in the hilly area, also began to provide artillery support.
They also had four Liao-made field guns there, which directly led to the shelling of the fifth battalion.
What did Bu Sheng say? After the appearance of the fifth battalion, it indeed contained a considerable part of the Yuan army and reduced the defense of the first battalion in Qicun Town.
At 4:40, Chen Ziyun came to the area south of Qicun Town.
On the way there, Chen Ziyun was attacked by the puppet Mongolian cavalry.
More than thirty puppet Mongolian cavalry suddenly rushed out, and they came straight towards Chen Ziyun.
At this time, Chen Ziyunquan's military rank was Army Artillery Lieutenant Colonel, but because he served as the commander of the 11th Reserve Regiment, he could wear the school uniform, which was a job rank.
When the cavalry saw Chen Ziyun, they did not choose to shoot. Instead, they quickly charged at him with their sabers and hammers.
Fortunately, there was an infantry platoon from the guard company beside Chen Ziyun, who immediately organized firepower to intercept.
One after another Jin-made submachine guns and light machine guns opened fire one after another.
But even then, did those pseudo-Mongolian troops show superb riding skills?
Some of them hid directly on horseback, or hid their bodies on the side of the horse's back to avoid bullet attacks.
Some quickly put away their sabers and took aim with their Liao-made rifles.
More cavalry came quickly and threw a horsehair rope, which was directly tied to Chen Ziyun's body.
Chen Ziyun was instantly dragged away by the horse, dragging him a full four to five meters.
Fortunately, a soldier from the guard company immediately took aim with his rifle and shot the cavalry, and then stopped coming eastward.
Chen Ziyun's military uniform was damaged everywhere, there were abrasions all over his body, and his body was in burning pain.
He was so angry that he took out the shell gun and pulled the trigger one after another, because he had intermediate shooting skills supported by the system.
Some puppet Mongolian cavalry who wanted to get closer were eliminated one after another.
The covering infantry platoon began to carry out precise strikes. The soldiers holding submachine guns lay directly on the ground and fired.
The rifle leg was half-kneeling on the ground, aiming and shooting.
Each grenade launcher also fired quickly.
More than 30 puppet Mongolian cavalry were annihilated one after another.
The terrain south of Qicun Town is very flat, which is very conducive to cavalry mobile operations.
That means the puppet Mongolian army wants to capture people alive. Otherwise, if they shoot from a long distance, they will definitely gain something.
Of course, the infantry platoon protecting Chen Ziyun belongs to the guard company, and they are not vegetarians either.
The puppet Mongolian cavalry paid the price with their lives for their carelessness.
Chen Ziyun brought the war horses and rode forward with the soldiers.
After arriving at the battlefield, he quickly understood the situation and promptly contacted the Second Battalion and the Second Mountain Artillery Company.
"Captain Chen, the first and third battalions are fighting very hard. They have completely lost contact with the regiment headquarters."
"They sent signal troops to check the lines and found that the regiment headquarters had been moved."
"There was a lot of gunfire and artillery fire over there at the First Battalion. They were continuing to fight, but the little Japanese had already invaded the outside of the town."
"The Third Battalion is surrounded by puppet Mongolian troops, and they don't know how to provide support."
"They are worried that once they advance that way, they will be attacked wildly by the puppet Mongolian cavalry."
When the commander of the second battalion of the 358th regiment saw Chen Ziyun, he said with a solemn expression on his face.
Chen Ziyun was not surprised at all about Qian Bojun's withdrawal.
I wonder if Qian Bojun can command the troops to defend and live and die with the entire regiment. That would be a strange thing.
And I begged Qian Bojun to do that. With his qualifications and status, it would be impossible for him to completely master the 358th Regiment in the future.
But after what happened tomorrow, Qian Bojun's desire to control the 358th Regiment was completely wishful thinking.
The officers and soldiers are not stupid either. No one will be willing to sacrifice their lives for a regiment commander who will abandon them at any time.
Even those officers and soldiers can directly use black guns during combat.
There is a battlefield, and anything can happen.
"He has arranged troops for support over the First Battalion. They can defend Qicun Town."
"We ask for help from the third battalion to rush over quickly, and he will command us to fight."
"The Puppet Mongolian Army's combat effectiveness is not weak, especially their cavalry, which is very strong."
