"Rumble...cavalry company, follow me and kill...kill..."
The smoke surrounding the squadron leader had not yet dissipated, but the shouts of the cavalry company had reached his ears. When he looked up, he saw the silhouette of the cavalry company.
More than a hundred cavalrymen rushed towards him with their sabers raised and howling.
"Hurry up and shoot... The enemies are coming, stop them... Hurry..." The squadron leader's newly ignited hope was once again covered by despair, and he cried out.
"Da da da……"
The machine gunner was the first to react, holding the crooked handle and firing at the cavalry company...
The squadron leader saw clearly that the cavalryman at the front was shot, and he and his horse were carried on the assault road...
The speed of the cavalry assault has reached its extreme...the rider who was shot was overwhelmed by the cavalry rushing behind him as soon as he landed.
"Bang bang bang..."
There was also a burst of gunfire from the cavalry unit, and the machine gunner squatting next to the squadron leader was unfortunately shot...
In front of the rapidly charging cavalry, the distance of dozens of meters passed in an instant. The deputy shooter had just hugged the light machine gun that had been smashed on the ground, and before he had time to pull the trigger, a loud shout had already reached their ears.
"kill……"
The saber emitting cold light flashed past the squadron leader's eyes. The deputy archer's neck was instantly cut with a cut, and blood spattered out. The deputy archer squatting on the ground also fell to the ground on his back under the force of the saber...
"kill……"
Another cavalryman raised his saber and charged towards the squadron leader.
"Baga..." The squadron leader panicked and quickly raised his knife to block it.
But the opponent rushed over too fast, and the hasty block had no effect at all.
The moment the saber collided with the command sword, a huge force was like a mountain pressing down on him, instantly pressing down the command sword he had raised.
He didn't stop until the sharp blade of the saber broke through the squadron leader's neck.
The cavalry roared past him. The moment he put away his sword, the squadron leader fell to the ground with a "plop", his eyes widened and he refused to rest in death...
"kill……"
More than a hundred cavalrymen were like more than a hundred little tigers, roaring and crashing into the group of Japanese!
Many Japanese soldiers were knocked upside down before they could react to the panic caused by the shelling, and then were trampled to pieces by war horses...
Even if the Japanese reacted, they would be helpless against the cavalry that rushed over quickly, and they were chopped down by sabers one after another...
The cavalry's assault speed was very fast, like a sharp arrow from the string, quickly sweeping through the Japanese army... Everywhere they passed were corpses, not a single little Japanese standing...
Twenty minutes later, several company platoon leaders hurried to the village entrance to meet up. Everyone's face was filled with the joy of having just won a battle...
"Reporting to Staff Officer Huang... The armed workers team successfully completed the ambush mission... With the cooperation of the assault company's platoon, 15 Japs and 30 Ergouzi pretending to be little Japs were eliminated..." Tian Guiren, the captain of the armed workers team, reported with excitement.
"One light machine gun, one grenade launcher, and 41 rifles were seized..."
"Ten baggage trucks are loaded with grain, and ten baggage trucks are loaded with ammunition...there are bullets, grenades...and many artillery shells..."
"Commander Huang...it's so great to fight with you..." Zhang Dashan, the cavalry company commander, was so happy that he opened his mouth and began to sigh: "Except for the thirty or forty Japanese who were killed by the artillery, there are still one hundred and fifty Japanese left.
Many Japs were all wiped out by the cavalry company... I myself also killed three Japs..."
"Damn it, I haven't fought such a clean battle in a long time..."
"Where should we fight next?"
"In the raid just now, although the cavalry company sacrificed four soldiers and seriously injured two others, everyone's morale is very high... Even if we run into two more squadrons of Japanese, we still dare to rush forward and kill them!"
Huang Yu replied with a smile: "Let the soldiers have a good rest... sum up the shortcomings in the raid just now and learn lessons..."
"If we want to fight, we'll beat the little devil completely... and try to fight again before the little devil makes adjustments..."
"They killed one of our armed workers' teams and severely damaged another of our armed workers' teams..."
"We must retaliate and kill at least two of their infantry squadrons..."
Two days later, the baggage train was attacked and the news that the ambush unit was completely destroyed finally reached the headquarters of the 4th Mixed Brigade.
Chief of Staff Harada Nakazuo's first reaction after seeing the intelligence was disbelief...
After learning that both ambushes were attacked by cavalry...and that almost all the soldiers who died in battle were hacked to death by sabers, he believed that the brigade commander's action against the Eighth Route Army's armed workers' team had been crushed by the Eighth Route Army.
He also lost his wife and soldiers, and lost a lot of equipment, ammunition and escort troops in vain.
"General, the enemy attacking the two ambushes is equipped with a large number of cavalry... After receiving the news, I immediately contacted the frontline mopping up troops... All the cavalry companies of the independent regiment active around them have lost their traces and have not appeared for several days in a row! I am humble.
I suspect that this cavalry is the Independent Regiment Cavalry Company!"
"Knowing that we sent the cavalry regiment to deal with them, we took the initiative to withdraw from the battlefield and inserted ourselves into the area occupied by the imperial army to avenge the armed workers!"
Major General Miyazawa's face darkened after reading the information...
Although many armed workers were killed in the previous operations, the total number of them was less than 100.
Look at yourself again...
Two convoys were attacked, the escorting troops and the ambush troops were completely destroyed, and more than 400 subordinates were lost... No matter how you analyze it, you have suffered a huge loss.
"Pa..." After punching the table, he shouted angrily: "No matter whether this cavalry unit is from the independent regiment or not, I will kill him!"
"There are still several cavalry squadrons in Yangquan City!"
The chief of staff immediately replied: "The Cavalry Regiment has transferred six squadrons to reinforce the mopping up troops... There are still six squadrons in Yangquan City!"
"Order!"
Major General Miyazawa had obviously thought of a way to deal with the cavalry company, and said: "The six cavalry squadrons were divided into three, and the two cavalry squadrons moved together to replace the original ambush..."
"If the Eighth Route Army still dares to send out cavalry to attack the baggage train, the two cavalry squadrons will attack immediately and kill each other!"
Starting the day before yesterday, the Japanese army replaced the infantry protecting the baggage train with two cavalry squadrons...
The martial arts team and cavalry company operating in the occupied area disappeared again. Just when they felt that the Eighth Route Army had been scared away by the cavalry squadron and did not dare to appear again, Huang Yu was leading several cavalry companies in a hilly area to observe the terrain.
"Captain Tian...Captain Zhang, I'm going to set the next battlefield here!" Huang Yu pointed to the gentle slope in front of him.
"It's still the old rules...the martial arts team raided the Japanese army's transport team, and the cavalry company dealt with the Japanese ambush..."
"But because the little devil changed the ambush into cavalry, the assault company will also participate in the battle..."
"Did you see the mountain ridge at our feet...cutting off the road that the devils must take?"
"The assault company used all the light and heavy machine guns captured in the first two battles and lurked in the bushes more than 200 meters east of the top of the mountain ridge... After the Japanese army's transport team crossed the mountain ridge, the armed workers team launched an attack, and the assault company rushed out of the hiding spot at the same time.
, cut off the road, block the Japanese cavalry troops head-on, and try to kill half of the cavalry!"
"The cavalry company lurked behind the hills on the east side of the road. After the cavalry company suffered more than half of its casualties, it rushed to the battlefield and attacked the remaining Japanese cavalry from a high position..."
When the ambush troops were still infantry, they would be separated from the heavy train by about four miles, and they could reach the battlefield by marching in ten minutes.
After the infantry was replaced by cavalry, because the cavalry assault was very fast, and in order to paralyze the armed workers and lure them into being fooled, the distance was directly extended to eight miles...
This created enough space for Huang Yu to lay out the battlefield!
Okamura Shaozuo was the deputy captain of the Third Cavalry Brigade of the Cavalry Regiment. When he learned that a group of Eighth Route Army cavalry was operating in the occupied area, he decided to personally lead the team to kill them.
At this moment, he was riding forward slowly on his war horse, with two squadron captains under his command walking beside him, one on the left and one on the right, slapping two rainbow farts at him from time to time. He was in a very good mood.
"Da da da……"
As he walked, the familiar sound of machine gun fire finally reached his ears.
Okamura Shaozuo had been waiting for this moment for two days. When he heard the gunshot, he drew his saber and pointed forward and ordered: "The cavalry company we have been waiting for two days has finally appeared..."
"Everyone speed up, fight with me, kill the Eighth Route Army cavalry...kill them all..."
"Kill me..."
More than two hundred Japanese cavalrymen seemed to be on stimulants, and their blood instantly became boiling...
Raising the saber high, he roared and charged forward, getting faster and faster...
In the eyes of the cavalry, eight miles is just a charging distance. As long as they increase their speed, they can reach the battlefield in ten minutes at most.
But his dream was soon shattered by a barrage of machine gun fire.
When there were still two miles to go before the battlefield, a mountain ridge lay across the front of the cavalry troops.
The mountain ridge is only a few tens of meters high, and the slope is very gentle. You can cross it with a single charge.
The sound of gunfire is on the other side of the ridge. After crossing the ridge, the cavalry troops can join the battle!
"Kill...the enemy is on the back of the mountain ridge, kill them and annihilate them all..." Okamura Shaozuo raised his saber above his head again and gave the order in excitement and expectation.
"Rumble..."
The dull sound of horse hoofbeats instantly covered up his previous order, and more than two hundred cavalrymen rushed towards the mountain ridge without any hesitation, without any vigilance.
The pressure brought by the cavalry assault was very great. Even though the enemy was still three to four hundred meters away, the deafening sound of horse hooves still made everyone feel uneasy and nervous.
Many soldiers became frightened, fearing that the cavalry would break through the fire interception and trample them into a pile of flesh.
"Steady..." Huang Yu was also very nervous and ordered after forcing himself to calm down.
Stare at the butt of the crooked handle with your shoulder, hold the handle of the gun with one hand and prepare to pull the trigger, and press the pressure plate on the magazine of the crooked handle with one hand...
The temporary assistant shooter was lying next to him, holding a five-round bullet clip in his hand, ready to load bullets into the magazine at any time.
When the cavalry was still two hundred meters away from the top of the mountain ridge, Huang Yu decisively pulled the trigger...
A string of five bullets flew out of the barrel and flew in a fan shape towards the little Japanese at the front...
"Boom, boom..." The little Japanese who was shot several times fell to the ground with his horse and man, and was instantly submerged in the torrent by the following cavalry.
