How long does it take for a horse to run 100 meters? How about 200 meters?
Regardless of whether the answer is ten seconds or twenty seconds, it is enough for the cavalry on horseback to raise their sabers and get into position.
Similarly, whether ten seconds or twenty seconds is not enough for the infantry to set up a position, it is impossible to set up a machine gun so quickly, find a bunker and fire a target.
"puff!"
On the galloping horse, Wei Ran relied on the equestrian skills that Metal Book taught him to lean forward. While urging the biting black horse to speed up, he raised his hand to pick up his saber, and easily blocked a Japanese soldier in a hurry.
When he lifted it up, he didn't even have time to put the bayonet's cap on, and his wrist was split open.
Before it could scream, Wei Ran had already switched the blade and slashed downwards. Without feeling any resistance at all, he cut off most of the other devil's face.
In repeated cycles of waving up and down, the Japanese were either scratched on their arms and shoulders, or had their faces cut open, or were knocked down directly by war horses. They were killed one after another before they could get up.
The iron hooves trampled her again and again, turning her into rags and pulp.
"puff!"
When Wei Ran once again swung his knife to kill a fierce Japanese, a bullet from an unknown source also grazed his armpit and flew behind him.
There was no time to look back to see if anyone had been shot and fell off the horse, and no time to check whether he was injured. When Wei Ran released the reins with his left hand, he had already grasped a box cannon that suddenly appeared.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Amidst the gunshots that rang out from time to time, and the saber swings that cut to the flesh, Wei Ran followed the cavalry in front and slashed from the rear to the front of the team at once.
He had to admit that this cavalry team was tough. They even separated a few people and launched a charge at the trucks from both sides, or slashed their sabers at the still-rotating tires without fear of death.
Either throwing a smoking grenade into the cargo compartment, or smashing the car window and throwing it into the cab, or even taking the risk of adding a few suppressive shots to control the horse and escape before the explosion.
Amidst the explosions and the increasingly intensive gunfire, some cavalrymen fell off their horses and some horses fell to the ground.
But at this time, the Third Company, still hiding in the deserted village, also launched a second round of charge, raising their sabers towards the enemies who once again turned their backs to them.
At the same time, Ma Jintao also ran back in circles with the cavalry company under his command, and launched another death charge at the panicked puppet troops!
This time, under his leadership, war horses rushed directly into the ranks of the puppet troops.
Chop, collide, trample, and shoot. In just one round, the puppet troops immediately collapsed and ran away.
Ma Jintao, who was also injured, did not stop. Instead, while the third company was attracting attention, he used high speed to attack the Japs at the rear of the team and blew the command whistle at the same time!
Amidst the sharp whistles, the pistol team headed by Li Sui'an immediately took out the cannon and ran close to the side of the Japanese transport team, while repeatedly pulling the triggers at the animals pulling the carts!
At the same time, the Third Company also ran towards the leader of the team from the other side. They also had a small number of soldiers equipped with pistols who were shooting at the animals pulling the carts!
"kill!"
Ma Jintao spit out the whistle in his mouth and roared, and the saber in his hand easily chopped off a Japanese soldier's head!
The casualties of the cavalry charge were undoubtedly heavy, but from the moment the cavalry successfully charged into battle, it was a high-speed massacre without any suspense!
When they once again pierced through the Japanese team and rushed towards the head of the Japanese team, the third company had also rushed over, and just like them, they turned around and started the third round of ravaging the Japanese infantry!
At this time, Wei Ran, who was riding on horseback, was trembling all over due to the excessive secretion of adrenaline. Every part of his body was covered with color. If it hadn't been for the cloth wrapped around him, the saber in his hand might have been
He had to throw it away just now when he accidentally hit a rifle.
Even so, this flesh and blood millstone still did not stop.
When another follow-up shot at the transport troops emptied the remaining bullets in the cannon, Ma Jintao also used his whistle to direct them to start chasing the Japanese who collapsed and fled.
"puff!"
Wei Ran, who had most of his arms stained red with blood, raised his saber again and successfully took away the head of a escaping Japanese soldier.
Gently turning the handle of the knife to let the air flow take away the blood stains on the knife, Wei Ran saw the opportunity and put the knife on the back of the neck of the next running Japanese and turned his wrist.
In the stinking blood that spurted out, the devil's neck was slashed with a huge wound that was so deep that the bones were visible. His whole body was staggered and fell to the ground, twitching and motionless.
Once again letting the air flow blow away most of the blood on the knife, Wei Ran pulled the reins in a circle and began to chase the Japs in other directions.
Nearly 400 cavalrymen faced off against more than 500 mixed troops of Japanese and puppet troops, especially with more than 100 transport troops mixed in. This battle was really unlikely to last long.
"beep--!"
With another whistle, the battle came to an end.
Ma Jintao shouted loudly, "Collect the corpses of your comrades! Search for the trophies! Xiaobai! Watch out!"
"yes!"
Bai Yuguang responded loudly, and rode his horse with several people to run in the direction from which the Japanese team came. Similarly, the third company commander also sent several people to run in the direction that the Japanese were preparing to advance.
After Wei Ran confirmed that Zhao Jinyu and Li Sui'an were both alive, he did not participate in collecting the corpses and searching for loot. Instead, he untied the cloth strips wrapped around his hands, stuffed the saber into his saddlebags, and then stood upright with his stirrups on.
body, holding up the camera to capture everything he saw.
Although this battle was very fruitful, the cavalry of the Secret Service Company alone suffered nearly 20 casualties here. The third company's weapons and equipment were relatively worse, and the number of casualties was close to 40.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This is because of the surprise battle they fought. If the Japanese machine guns and grenade launchers were set up, their casualties would probably be even greater.
As for why we don’t rely on numbers to fight ambushes and high-gun battles...
Wei Ran couldn't help but shook his head. Not to mention the third company, even the special agent company led by Ma Jintao, most of the rifles carried by the cavalry were rusty and lacked maintenance. As for the accuracy, no matter how accurate it was, it was probably not as accurate as the Japanese soldiers.
The quality is quite different.
This can be clearly seen from the condition of the cavalry rifle that Wei Ran received.
And more importantly, the Japs on the opposite side have an average of 120 rounds of ammunition per capita. How many 120 rounds of ammunition can a company of cavalry like them produce?
This is helplessness and a sad reality. Because of these helplessness and reality, these northwest men chose the bloodiest, most dangerous, but also the surest and most winning way to finish this annihilation war.
Pressing the shutter again towards the soldiers cleaning the battlefield, Wei Ran finally had time to check his own situation.
In the few rounds of killing just now, his leg was cut by a Japanese bayonet, a bloody groove was made in his left rib by a bullet, and his arm was also bruised. Even the biting horse was injured.
A stray bullet left a hideous wound six to seven centimeters long on the edge of his buttocks.
Fortunately, no matter whether it was a man or a horse, there were many wounds, but they were not fatal, and they would not hinder the team.
"Checked"
At this time, Li Sui'an also drove his horse to Ma Jintao's side not far away, "It is estimated that it is the food collection team and the team that captures the strong men. We have been beaten by us these days. The number of people sent out is getting bigger and bigger."
The more.”
"Where are they from now? We still have to give them strength." Ma Jintao muttered to himself as he looked at the corpses of his cavalrymen.
In silence, amidst the neighing of war horses, the corpses of cavalrymen and bundles of various rifles were carried on horseback, and boxes of rifle bullets, grenades and other captured items were loaded into sacks.
It was a rare opportunity, so Weiran also took out the oil drum from the metal book, made a big enough gap in the fuel tank of one of the trucks, and filled the oil drum with fuel.
He was not the only one who was also receiving fuel. The other soldiers also used the captured Japanese helmets to collect most of the fuel and poured it on large trucks, trucks and even the piled-up Japanese corpses.
It only took less than ten minutes to clean up the battlefield. Despite the order, the soldiers set fire to the trucks and bodies. With the joy of victory and the sadness of losing their comrades, under the leadership of the two company commanders, they galloped away.
After leaving the ambush site, the smell of meat began to fill the air.
Finally, after taking a photo of the mess, Wei Ran glanced at the two surviving ugly Japs not far away, snorted and urged his horse to catch up.
It wasn't until they left that the two Japanese soldiers who had been deliberately spared but whose horses were confiscated ran in a panic in the direction they came from - their noses, ears, top and bottom were cut off by Bai Yuguang's men.
Lips and thumb.
Correspondingly, in order to keep them alive, Zhao Jinyu also kindly used fine sand to help them complete simple hemostasis. If they were not beaten to death by the refugees along the way, as long as their legs and feet were fast, I believe they could always run away before the blood dried up.
Going back, probably."
"Are you two hurt?"
Wei Ran, who was riding on horseback, asked loudly while treating his wounds with the captured Japanese first aid kit.
"I'm fine," Li Sui'an waved his hand and said.
"Small injury" Zhao Jinyu waved his hand nonchalantly, "Are you seriously injured?"
"I can't die," Wei Ran said, already tightening the wound.
"Xiao Wu is gone"
Li Sui'an said suddenly, and his eyes subconsciously looked at the body lying on the back of an unrided horse not far away.
"Xiao Wu is..."
"Brother Li's fellow countryman"
Zhao Jinyu sighed and raised his finger to point to the body of another cavalryman tied to the back not far away, "Brother Su is gone too. He also said he would introduce his cousin to me. Come on, he has to be special."
So let’s continue beating the naked stick.”
Looking at the comrades they chatted with whom he had not yet gotten to know, all Wei Ran could do was to press the shutter towards them, towards the corpses and trophies tied to the horses.
The horses were galloping all the way, and when they were crossing the flooded Yellow River by another road in circles, they saw Captain Ma with another company in the bank personally to meet him, as well as countless people around him.
Those few artillery pieces and very few cannonballs.
"How many injuries?" Captain Ma asked.
"57" Ma Jintao replied.
"How many were killed?" Captain Ma asked again.
"Just let them go and let them go back to report the news," Ma Jintao continued to answer.
"Go and bury your brothers."
After finishing speaking, Commander Ma took out his saber and said, "Hey guys! Open the Heavenly Gate!"
"Open the Heavenly Gate!"
The surviving cavalrymen and the cavalrymen who came to rescue them all shouted in unison, and surrounded the horses and cavalry squads carrying the corpses back, heading straight for the cemetery where the soldiers were buried.
Just like the last time those soldiers were buried, the graves have been dug here in advance.
Fifty-seven warriors who trained together yesterday, ate and drank together, prayed devoutly together, and polished their swords together, under the attention of the people around them, hastily rolled up half a straw mat and lay down side by side in the grave pit, and the only one who could accompany them
What they were buried together was only a piece of cloth that had been tied to the handle of the knife and a strand of the tail of their beloved war horse.
"salute!"
As the commander of the horse regiment roared, all the mounted cavalrymen raised their broad sabers with many gaps to their chests, then slashed them diagonally downwards, and struck hard on the blood-stained stirrups.
superior.
"Qiang! Qiang! Qiang!"
Amidst the knocking sound that was filled with the strong smell of blood, the war horses anxiously stepped on the ladder that was also stained with blood. Those horses that had lost their comrades also neighed in the distance.
"Brothers! Open the Tianmen!" Captain Ma roared loudly.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Brothers! Open the Heavenly Gate!" Wei Ran followed the crowd, shouting blessings and tapping the stirrups with his saber.
After a while, the knocking stopped, and spades of soil covered the once living warriors. In the rising white light, Wei Ran heard the hum of more and more warriors reciting scriptures around him.
.
Is this... the end?
Wei Ran was stunned, but the white light that had just blocked his vision slowly faded away. When he came back to his senses, he found that he was standing on the edge of the stable, holding an iron-toothed comb in his hand, giving the biting horse
The horse combed the grass stalks and soil balls stained on its body.
Almost subconsciously, he looked at the edge of the horse's butt.
Before the white light, a stray bullet had caused a wound of six to seven centimeters here. But now, the wound has grown well, and even the scab is almost falling off.
Looking at myself again, no matter whether the wounds on the legs or between the ribs, all the stitches have been removed and only the scabs are left. However, when I press it with my hands, there is still some pain.
It seems like it hasn’t been that long since the last injury?
Wei Ran pondered while checking the equipment all over his body. Compared with the previous scene, the Type 44 cavalry gun had less than thirty bullets left, and there were many gaps on the saber that could not be completely polished off.
, there are only less than 20 rounds of pistol bullets left in the Kowloon belt.
Fortunately, the box cannon tied to the Long March pole was full of ammunition this time. But what made him grit his teeth and secretly thought that something bad was that the three oil barrels were emptied again. I am afraid that not even a single bacteria was left in them.
Leftover!
Before he could start greeting a certain living ancestor who always deducted his supplies, a rapid whistle sounded in the front yard.
Your uncle!
Wei Ran only had time to curse inwardly, and hurriedly checked the equipment on the biting horse. All the necessary things were there, and he immediately stuffed the iron-toothed comb in his hand into the bag, untied the reins, turned over on the horse, and ran away.
When he found the gathering place and rode his horse to the side of Li Sui'an and Zhao Jinyu, the horse captain also rode to the front of the queue at about the same time.
"Gawa girls!"
The leader of the horse regiment drew his saber and roared, "The whole regiment crosses the river! Attack Huaiyang! Kill the Japanese and leave no men or horses behind!"
"No men and horses left! No men and horses left! No men and horses left!"
All the cavalry gathered here, including the cooking team and Bai Yuguang's father, all roared together.
"Special agents lead the way! Set off immediately!" Commander Ma issued a new order.
"Set off!"
Ma Jintao gave an order, and Bai Yuguang was the first to gallop. This time, he had a big flag in his hand that was flapping in the wind.
