Amidst the sharp and rapid whistle, Wei Ran quickly ran back to the west wing, picked up the saber on the table and the cavalry rifle hanging on the wall, and ran to the backyard.
Fortunately, the biting horse is still tied here, and the saddle and other items have been placed in the stone trough in advance.
Nodding to the horse herder Lao Bai not far away as a token of thanks, Wei Ran saddled up as quickly as possible and said, "Uncle Bai, I gave all the photo films I took for you last time to Han Huyuan! Wait a minute.
He can develop the photos when he gets back!"
"Hey! Okay!"
Lao Bai responded angrily, took out four or five exceptionally clean carrots from the mantle draped over his shoulders and stuffed them into Wei Ran's mango, "Eat them as snacks!"
"Thank you!"
While Wei Ran was talking, he had already fastened his saddle straps, quickly got on his horse, shouted to the biting horse who had just taken a carrot from Lao Bai's hand, and ran towards the threshing floor where they were gathered outside.
Because he was prepared in advance, he came early this time.
Not long after, cavalrymen also rushed over from the direction of the stables. Some of them drove their horses to line up behind Wei Ran, and some formed a square formation behind Zhao Jinyu who was following closely.
part.
After some secret observation, Wei Ran also noticed that there were less than 30 members of the pistol team led by him, and even the total number of this special agent company was only over a hundred. Obviously, this team still has not recovered from the last poisonous gas attack.
It's a relief from the battle.
After a moment of waiting, Captain Ma rode up to the front of the phalanx. In a blink of an eye, Captain Ma lost a lot of weight, and there was a scar on his face that extended from the peak of his eyebrows to his neck. With this
When the scars corresponded to each other, there was also an extra medal on his chest.
"Ga babies!"
"Qiang! Qiang! Qiang!" The remaining three to four hundred cavalrymen in the whole regiment all struck their stirrups with their sabers.
"The time for revenge has come"
Captain Ma raised his saber as he spoke, "The brigade commander ordered no prisoners!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!" The cavalry, which had been suppressed for who knows how long, roared in unison.
"rush!"
Captain Ma gave the order and was the first to gallop out!
Needless to say, several cavalry companies followed the horse regiment commander out of the camp, crossed the river and headed straight for the distant battlefield.
Another fight to the death?
How long will the fight to the death last?
Li Sui'an undoubtedly survived, but what about Zhao Jinyu? Will he survive? And what about the people around him?
In Wei Ran's wild thoughts, the cavalry team began a rapid march under the command of Captain Ma.
Naturally, there was no answer to those random thoughts. The cavalry team also ran slowly and hurriedly for nearly an hour before stopping under the order of the horse regiment leader.
"Spread out and rest where you are!"
Commander Ma's adjutant issued a new order, but Commander Ma himself called several company commanders over and gathered around them, each holding his pocket watch and discussing something in a low voice.
The rest of the cavalry did not dare to delay, and quickly dismounted, either combing the horse's hide with a small iron-toothed rake, or fetching water from a nearby river, wetting a towel and putting it around the horse's neck.
Of course, there are people like Zhao Jinyu and Wei Ran who immediately start braiding the horse's tail after cooling down the war horse, or they take out the whetstone and cut back and forth on the horse dung after polishing it carefully."
Enchanted".
At this moment, everyone knew clearly that their current rest was to allow their horses to regain their strength and prepare for the upcoming charge.
Following the example of the cavalry around him, he used his saber to chop the horse dung several times. Wei Ran looked around and simply put the saber in his hand into a small smelly puddle to soak it.
This method is indeed disgusting, but Wei Ran knows clearly that in this era when everyone is short of antibiotics, this method is absolutely lethal.
"What do you think I should do?"
Zhao Jinyu also chopped his saber into the puddle, sat down next to Wei Ran, divided a cigarette and asked in a low voice.
"What should we do?" Wei Ran asked knowingly.
"I plan to go back to find my eldest and second brothers, as well as Squad Leader Xiaohu and Brother Hu." Zhao Jinyu took out a pack of matches to light Wei's cigarette, then lit it for himself, and asked vaguely, "What about you?
?Don’t you want to?”
"What are you worried about?" Wei Ran did not answer the other party's question, but asked a new question.
“No worries”
Zhao Jinyu shook his head, "I just don't know how to say it. My brother-in-law takes good care of me. I don't know if I'll be considered a deserter if I leave at this time. What if my brother-in-law has something wrong with me after I leave? I... I
return..."
"beep--!"
Before Zhao Jinyu could finish expressing his worries, Commander Ma's adjutant blew the whistle. Immediately, everyone around him immediately grabbed their swords and got on their horses.
Seeing Wei Ran looking at him, Zhao Jinyu smiled helplessly, "Go back... Let's talk about it when we get back alive."
"We must go back alive." Wei Ran responded with a blessing in a low voice, and then looked at the commander of the horse group.
"Gawa"
When Captain Ma spoke, all the cavalrymen straightened their chests.
"This time our opponent is the Japanese cavalry. There are two brigades, six to seven hundred men and horses. Our regiment is responsible for outflanking them!"
The leader of the horse riding on the horse raised his voice and said, "Kill! Don't take prisoners, no matter the horse power! Guys, are you afraid?"
"Don't be afraid!" the cavalry shouted in unison.
"Boom!" Just at this moment, a cannon shot was heard in the distance.
"It's time to open the Tianmen!" Captain Ma shouted and was the first to rush out.
"Open the Heavenly Gate!"
Everyone yelled and rushed forward, wrapping the leader of the horse in the middle.
This time they only ran for less than five minutes before they saw the Japanese cavalry.
At this time, the two cavalry brigades that had just been attacked dispersed and slowed down their horses. Especially the machine gun team at the back was telling their horses to lie down as support, and was busy setting up machine guns and grenades and even mortar attacks.
Where's the cannon!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Kill!"
The commander of the horse group shouted, and everyone immediately hit their horses again, increased their speed, and rushed forward to face the Japanese cavalry!
“Da da da da—!”
Amidst the dense and chaotic gunfire, the pistol team led by Wei Ran opened fire first, covering the newly set up machine guns, grenade launchers and even mortar positions with overlapping fan-shaped barrages!
After clearing the bullets from the magazine of the box cannon in the metal book, Wei Ran put away the gun and immediately pulled out the box cannon from his waist, and fired another fan towards the Japanese cavalry who was already close at hand.
"Da da da——"
Amidst the somewhat lonely and dense gunfire, the four or five Japanese war horses directly in front fell to the ground one after another. The Japanese who had just taken out their box of bastards and were about to fire back were also screaming and screaming, either being dragged away by the war horses, or being thrown away.
Was pressed to the ground.
Before all the box cannons in his hands were stuffed into the bag, the two cavalry collided head-on!
"puff!"
Wei Ran slashed the lower back of a Japanese cavalryman with his first sword. When he put the sword away, he also smeared the sword on the head of the next Japanese war horse, easily cutting off most of the horse's nose.
Stimulated by the severe pain, the war horse immediately raised its front hooves and threw off the cavalryman on its back.
Before its front hooves could even drop, Zhao Jinyu, who was running over from the other side, cut open the horse's belly with a knife!
They worked together to defeat an enemy, and the sabers in their hands rushed towards the next enemy.
"clang!"
The sabers of a Japanese cavalryman clashed with each other in an almost head-to-head manner. Wei Ran, who played extremely dirty, took the opportunity to spit a mouthful of phlegm into the opponent's face!
"Pooh!"
Under this sudden and humiliating blow, the Japanese cavalryman was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wiped off the sticky substance on his face that had covered one eye.
But by the time he reacted, Wei Ran had already slashed the next Japs arm with his gapped saber. Zhao Jinyu on the other side also took the opportunity to kill the Japs who had eaten Wei Ran's spittle.
After a brief confrontation, both sides penetrated each other's cavalry line.
However, almost immediately, Wei Ran and others rushed out of another cavalry team in front of them, the same cavalry team shouting "Open the Tianmen!"
The moment the two sides passed each other, the shouts of killing, the clash of sabers, and the neighing of war horses were heard again from behind!
There was no need to command at all, no one was commanding them at all. Everyone turned around the dock almost at the same time, especially the pistol team. They each took out the magazines they had prepared in advance and pressed them into the cannon box.
"rush!"
The adjutant of Captain Ma shouted and blew the whistle. Immediately, the cavalry began their second round of killing!
This time, it was still the special agent company that charged forward, still firing bursts of box cannons and even the flower traps that fired first!
Amidst the still intensive gunfire, the Japanese cavalry who had just experienced another round of fighting had not had time to take a breath, and some had not even had time to turn their horses' heads. Wei Ran and others had already rushed forward chasing the bullets!
This time the charge was obviously much simpler than the first round. As the sabers were waved again and again, the Japanese cavalry who had just turned their horses around most of the time did not react, or even if they did react, they raised their sabers to fight, but they still had obvious strength.
Much weaker.
"clang!"
In another saber-to-saber collision, the saber in Wei Ran's hand almost knocked away the opponent's saber.
There was no follow-up attack at all, so he used the reaction force of the collision to raise the blade and slashed across the neck of the next Japs who had his back facing him.
Before the head rolled off its shoulders and landed on the ground, the Japanese cavalry was pierced again. At the same time, the friendly troops who had just passed by Wei Ran and others rushed back again, passed by again, and pounced on them again.
Disorganized enemies!
"beep--!"
At the whistle of the regimental commander's adjutant, everyone turned again, and the pistol team once again raised the box cannon loaded with bullets!
"Da da da——!"
Under a new round of fire suppression, the severely reduced Japanese cavalry already had the intention to escape, but how could the pocket formation that was finally made allow them to escape?
Under the desperate gaze of these Japanese cavalry who were rushing to welcome a new round of killings but had no chance to run, a group of cavalrymen with sabers raised and watching appeared in the direction where they came from.
In the third round of hand-to-hand combat, a desperate Japanese soldier flew from his own horse and pounced directly on Wei Ran's biting horse.
"puff!"
Although Wei Ran did not expect such a move, he did not delay at all. He held the saber horizontally in front of him, used the mottled and jagged blade to press against the neck of the Japanese who bumped into him, and pulled it horizontally.
"laugh--"
There was a splashing sound close to his ears, and warm and smelly blood spurted onto Wei Ran's chest, neck, and even his face, which turned red. The Japanese man whose neck had been cut open was also pushed out by Wei Ran.
In just such a moment, the next Japanese cavalryman had already raised his saber and was about to pierce Wei Ran's chest! But Wei Ran's eyes were blinded by blood at this time!
"Bang!"
At this moment, Zhao Jinyu held up the box cannon and pulled the trigger, hitting the Japs on the forehead with great accuracy!
Under the impact of the bullet, the Japs lay on their backs. The saber in his hand slipped to the ground when he was less than three or four meters away from Wei Ran, and stabbed diagonally on the yellow sand.
By the time Wei Ran wiped the blood from his eyes, they had already penetrated the Japanese cavalry again!
"Toot! Toot! Toot! Toot!"
At Ma Jintao's whistle, the cavalry team, which had been charging back and forth for three rounds, finally stopped after passing by the friendly troops on the opposite side.
"Raise the gun!" Ma Jintao roared and issued the order.
After a burst of noise, the bloody cavalrymen each took off most of the captured Japanese Type 38 cavalry rifles from their shoulders. Only the guards took out the cavalry rifles, not the cavalry rifles, but the cameras.
Compared to the camera he carefully cared for, most of the carbines in the hands of other soldiers were rusty due to lack of necessary maintenance.
In quite a number of them, the buttstocks have cracked from the middle along the glue line where they were originally manufactured, so that they have to be tied and fixed with leather, nails or cloth strips.
But even so, they can still fight!
Almost at the moment when the friendly forces that had just passed by once again penetrated the remaining cavalry team of the Japanese, with a whistle, everyone immediately pulled the trigger, and while Wei Ran pressed the shutter, he fired a round that should have been long ago.
A volley gun that was eliminated during the war.
This definitely saves bullets more than machine gun suppression. After just one round of gunfire, there were already less than 50 Japanese cavalry still on horseback.
"Bang--!"
After a round of volley fire from the opposite direction, the remaining forty or fifty Japanese cavalrymen were also shot one after another. Only their horses were left standing there helplessly.
It wasn't until all the Japs cavalry were wiped out and only a few dozen Japs horses were left in the middle of the battlefield that Wei Ran noticed the pain, the pain coming from his legs and arms.
But more than the pain, he noticed that even with the assistance of the friendly army on the opposite side, after this round of fighting, their cavalry regiment only had at most two hundred cavalry left.
What's even more terrible is that he did not find the commander of the horse group who gave him the riding boots among the more than two hundred people, nor did he find his adjutant.
Obviously, the other cavalry soldiers around also noticed this.
After a brief moment of panic, Ma Jintao urged his horse forward and said, "Special Agent Company! Get the regiment leader and adjutant back! The rest of us will clean up the battlefield and rescue our comrades!"
"yes!"
Everyone responded in unison, urging their horses to rush towards the fighting battlefield less than a hundred meters away.
Enduring the pain all over his body, Wei Ran dismounted and filled both the light and dark box cannons with bullets, and then walked towards the corpses on the ground with his saber in hand.
"puff!"
Wei Ran patched up the neck of a Japanese cavalryman who had half of his shoulder chopped off and a knife wound on his leg.
Continuing to walk forward, he stopped next to a cavalryman, put his hand to test his breathing, and listened to his heartbeat. When he saw no response, he sighed, got up and continued walking forward.
The corpses of six to seven hundred men and horses from both the enemy and our side lay on the ground. This was a tragic situation that is difficult to describe.
In the vain efforts of pulling out the former comrades again and again, or trying to breathe, or listening to the heartbeat. After an hour of busy work, the people and the friendly forces on the opposite side finally...
Their respective comrades were carried away from the battlefield.
During this period, the special agent company finally found their leader and his adjutant.
Fortunately, the leader was still alive, although one of his arms was cut off at the elbow and his calf was broken after falling from the horse.
Unfortunately, his adjutant did not survive. He had a Japanese saber stuck in his abdomen. When he died, the empty gun in his hand was pressed against the quilt.
The Japanese cavalryman he held in his arms had his beaten chest.
"Gawa, let's take a picture of him."
Captain Ma said to Wei Ran, who had just helped him stop the bleeding from his broken arm and was aligning his broken bones, "You have been following me since I was 16... um——!"
As Captain Ma screamed, Wei Ran helped him align the broken bones in the flesh of his calf, and after some kneading to make sure they were aligned, he found four Japanese saber scabbards to use as splints to help Ma Tuan.
The length was fixed.
“My niece is already pregnant with a child younger than”
Captain Ma, whose face was pale from the pain, almost sighed in despair, "I...what shall I tell you when I go back! Alas!"
"Captain, I will take a photo of him." Wei Ran promised seriously, "I...I'll go right away."
"Jin Tao... From now on, you are the acting captain." Captain Ma said blankly, looking in the direction of Adjutant Yu.
"Yes!" Ma Jintao accepted the order seriously, but there was no joy of being promoted on his face.
Wei Ran left the old and new regiment commanders in a panic. He raised his camera and pressed the shutter towards the adjutant, taking a picture of him and the enemy he killed. Then he personally helped him push away the enemy.
corpse, and carefully pulled out the saber from the adjutant's body.
"Let's go in peace..." Wei Ran muttered to himself and helped Adjutant Yu close his eyes.
In this battle, they wiped out all the Japanese cavalry, but they also paid a huge price. But compared to the pain of losing his comrades and the joy of victory, Zhao Jinyu became increasingly confused.
This is undoubtedly the most difficult time for the Cavalry Regiment, and he really has no way to ask for leaving the Cavalry Regiment at this time.
At the edge of the battlefield, Zhao Jinyu, who was guarding the trophies, was playing with the grenade he had just shared with his brothers after a fair share, and the grenade filled with two Japanese octopus bags. He couldn't help but think of the time in Baishan Heishui.
battle in.
"I can't say this..."
Zhao Jinyu, whose face was full of bitterness and tangle, looked at his comrades in the distance who were busy collecting the corpses. Finally, he sighed helplessly, opened the wooden gun box on his waist, and pulled out a box cannon.
This box cannon belongs to Li Sui'an. It was left to him before he sent Li Sui'an away.
In Li Sui'an's words, if he did not survive on the way to Ma's house, he would have to trouble Zhao Jinyu to send the gun back for him after driving away the Japanese.
Just wait a little longer...
Zhao Jinyu put the box gun back into the gun case and buttoned it, but even he didn't know what he was waiting for...
