"No. They should be surrounded by Japanese cavalry."
"Damn it!"
Zhang Chu frowned secretly.
I didn't expect to encounter such a tough situation!
The Japanese invaders actually dispatched two cavalry regiments!
As a rough estimate, there are almost three thousand people! This number is a bit large.
In fact, Zhang Chu encountered Japanese cavalry many times.
The Black Island Cavalry Regiment encountered.
Makino Cavalry Regiment, encountered.
And they were all defeated.
I didn't expect to meet you again here.
Or two brand new Japanese cavalry regiments.
Judging from the logo on the flag, it’s not Kuroshima or Makino!
Mud...
Swearing secretly.
The Japanese invaders had so many cavalry. They were everywhere.
What a disparity in national power!
It's really too different.
The Japanese invaders have basically completed half of industrialization.
They have become self-sufficient in producing various weapons, equipment and ammunition.
It can even create super sea monsters like the Yamato battleship.
Objectively speaking, it is indeed amazing.
During World War II, the Japanese invaders produced more than eight billion rounds of ammunition.
Although it cannot compare with European and American powers, it is enough to defeat all Asian countries. China has only produced 1.1 billion rounds. The ratio is 8:1.
As for the Eighth Route Army...
Unfortunately, there is no complete bullet production line.
You can only reload bullets.
The output is basically negligible.
Hand grenades are also made in the border area.
Even Li Yunlong looked down upon him.
Therefore, even though the cavalry was an aristocratic branch, it was very expensive. The Japanese invaders still organized a cavalry force of more than 100,000 people.
The Black Island Cavalry Regiment and the Makino Cavalry Regiment are just the tip of the iceberg.
In the past, most of the Japanese cavalry was deployed in the north to defend against the Soviets. They were not deployed to deal with the Eighth Route Army.
But it's different now.
Now the Japanese invaders have massively increased their troops in Jin Province.
The Eighth Route Army is getting stronger and stronger, but more and more Japanese invaders are entering Jin Province.
"what to do?"
"kill!"
Zhang Chu answered without hesitation.
What else can be done?
Just fight!
The Japanese cavalry unit must be attracted over.
Only in this way, Zhao Gang and others, who were surrounded by Japanese cavalry, had a chance to escape.
"My troops..."
"Change weapons!"
"Where?"
Chu Yunfei looked around blankly.
Change weapons at this time?
How to change?
is there time?
"call!"
"Bang!"
Suddenly, a black shadow fell from before his eyes.
Chu Yunfei was startled and hurriedly stepped back. Then he heard a bang and something hit the ground heavily.
what?
He looked down reflexively.
Oh, no need to bow your head.
It's such a big package. It's taller than his head.
Shocked?
how come?
airdrop?
Can airdrops be performed at this time?
be surprised……
When the new group visited, Chu Yunfei also knew something about airdrops.
He had a major in college and knew what an airdrop was. But he had never seen one before. Especially an airdrop like this, which didn't even have a parachute.
That would be smashed directly from the sky!
Won't it hit someone?
Don't break things?
Very curious. What is inside? It can withstand falling from thousands of meters high...
"Bren light machine gun."
"Thirty!"
Zhang Chu shouted loudly.
Chu Yunfei was at a loss. He didn't react for a while.
Bren light machine gun?
Seems familiar?
"Qijiu is furious?"
After a moment, Chu Yunfei asked doubtfully.
Zhang Chu:???
What's happening?
It's a Bren-type light machine gun! Bren! Not a Bolen!
"What caliber?"
"Seven point seven."
"Isn't Qijiu furious?"
"What's going on?"
"It's a Bren-type light machine gun with a caliber changed to 7.92 mm! It uses a 30-round curved magazine!"
"No."
Zhang Chu shook his head.
Sorry. There is no such specification.
The Bren light machine gun currently only has one caliber. It is the British 7.7 mm.
It is estimated that the system did not include the changed caliber in the model number.
Chu Yunfei:......
No more questions.
Unpacking the package in a hurry.
It was indeed filled with Bren-type light machine guns.
Chu Yunfei breathed a sigh of relief.
Very good. There are so many light machine guns that can deal with the Japanese cavalry for a while.
Then he frowned again.
"The bullets don't match!"
"There are bullets!"
Everyone hurriedly pulled out the Bren-type light machine guns and distributed them to the various soldiers.
Then load the bullet into the magazine.
There are only three spare magazines with 30 rounds each. It’s really not enough.
There were so many Japanese cavalry, and with only thirty light machine guns, they would definitely not be able to suppress them. At most, they could barely hold them back for a while.
Fortunately, there are more packages inside.
They brought ten American-made M2 heavy machine guns and ten 81mm mortars.
This is a powerful weapon against cavalry.
Facts have proven that the 12.7mm bullet is most suitable for hitting cavalry.
Even if the distance is a thousand meters, one shot can kill the enemy. There is no need for a second shot.
If the enemy cavalry launches a dense charge, it will be even more perfect. One bullet can penetrate three horses. Kill three eagles with one stone!
In addition, there are 81mm mortars.
This is the most mortar sent by Zhang Chu. If necessary, come out immediately.
Upgraded ten doors in one go and prepared for a fierce battle with the Japanese cavalry.
"good!"
Chu Yunfei also gradually became proud.
There are ten heavy machine guns, ten mortars, and thirty light machine guns, so you can definitely give it a try.
He himself also carried a Bren-type light machine gun.
"I shoot well with a machine gun."
"I use a rifle."
"Then let's have a good competition later."
"good!"
Zhang Chu nodded.
Holding an SVT-40 semi-automatic rifle in his hand, he waited for the Japanese cavalry to rush up.
What were the Japanese invaders doing at this time?
They didn't rush forward immediately.
They seem to be adjusting their deployment.
I kept seeing the Japanese cavalry moving back and forth, but no one rushed up.
Confuse……
what's the situation?
Are the Japanese so slow?
No reason!
What the hell are they doing?
"strangeness……"
Chu Yunfei also raised his telescope.
Zhang Chu didn't need a telescope, but he really couldn't figure out what the Japanese cavalry was doing.
This is obviously a waste of time!
Could it be that the Japanese cavalry were deliberately stalling for time?
It doesn't feel like...
"The Japanese misunderstood." Chu Yunfei said suddenly.
Zhang Chu: "What misunderstanding?"
"Thought we were the vanguard of the large army."
"What?"
"The Japs thought they encountered a large force of your Eighth Route Army."
"That……"
"They are adjusting their deployment. Focusing on defense."
"That……"
Zhang Chu finally understood something.
It turned out that the Japanese cavalry did not want to attack, but wanted to defend. No wonder they took no action.
But something doesn't feel right.
There are so many Japanese cavalry, why don't they start to defend without charging?
There seems to be no bushido spirit!
The Japanese are so stubborn, so they have to express their feelings...
"Sun Desheng!"
"arrive!"
"Immediately send a squad to Cangyun Ridge to find our people and report the news!"
"good!"
Sun Desheng made arrangements immediately.
In less than a minute, a squad of cavalry set off to gallop westward.
This is a race against time.
It's not as simple as rescuing Zhao Gang. It's about setting up a dragnet.
The two cavalry regiments of the Japanese invaders actually dared to go deep into the vicinity of Cangyun Ridge. They were really stubborn. They were also seeking their own death.
The Eighth Route Army has more than 10,000 troops nearby!
They had just wiped out two regiments of Japanese invaders and were resting and replenishing their strength.
If they were all dispatched, all the Japanese cavalry would be destroyed with just one pounce.
so……
The Japanese cavalry must be held back!
We must wait until the large forces arrive to successfully complete the encirclement!
