Chapter 513 Attacking with Fire and Burning the Eighth Route Army's Reliance
"If the artillery doesn't work, send infantry and cavalry up. The remaining personnel carriers in the convoy cannot suffer any more losses, otherwise we won't be able to retreat even if we want to!" the captain blurted out.
He patted his head and began to give orders: "Let the cavalry squadron kill..."
"There are plains all around. As long as we don't enter the village, the cavalry will be unstoppable. They can reach the artillery position of the Duer Regiment in a minute or two and destroy them!"
The first detachment of the cavalry squadron disappeared in the village of South Korea. After a hard time, they learned a lesson. The squadron leader is still worried about the village.
But the place the captain asked him to attack now was only filled with grain and straw. It was flat and flat without even a decent bunker. It was very suitable for a cavalry assault!
As long as the opponent is not equipped with a large number of light and heavy machine guns, the cavalry squadron will win!
He decisively drew his saber, pointed at the location of the artillery of the Second Regiment, and ordered: "The cavalry squadron rushes with me, kill the enemy's artillery, and kill them all..."
The roaring sound of horse hooves soon sounded on the battlefield. More than seventy Japanese cavalry formed an assault formation and charged toward the artillery position. Like an unsheathed sword, the speed was getting faster and faster.
Huang Yu and nearly twenty special forces members lay down on the edge of the grain field, and through the gaps in the straw of the grain, they could see the Japanese cavalry in full view.
"The little Japs have sent cavalry to kill them... Our Duer Regiment doesn't have a cavalry unit yet... After rounding up these Japs, we will have the horses to form a cavalry company..." Huang Yu ordered with an excited expression.
"Everyone move back a hundred meters...we will wait until all the Japanese cavalry enter Bao Valley before we shoot..."
"Hit people as much as possible, don't accidentally injure the horses!"
After saying that, he got up from the ground and retreated quickly under the cover of straw...
In less than two minutes, the roar of horse hooves could be heard at the edge of the valley.
The Japanese cavalry did not stop, and charged directly in with overwhelming force.
Although corn straw cannot stop the cavalry, it is still an obstacle and will affect the speed of the cavalry to a greater or lesser extent...
The captain of the cavalry squadron did not take this impact seriously and commanded the cavalry to continue to attack forward...
Wherever it went, all the grain and straw were knocked down, leaving a mess.
Huang Yu was holding a submachine gun, squatting on the ground and blending in with the straw. He could not be spotted from more than ten meters away.
The Japs were riding on war horses, which were taller than the corn stalks. Most of their bodies were exposed. Huang Yu could clearly see their every move, but the little Japs couldn't see Huang Yu's figure.
He slowly raised his submachine gun and pointed it at a little devil who looked like an officer...
When he rushed to 30 meters away, he pulled the trigger without hesitation. Three bullets flew out of the barrel in succession and flew towards the target in a fan shape.
The Japanese team leader was searching for the Eighth Route Army with wide eyes. In order to see further and more clearly, he raised his body high, like a living target standing in front of Huang Yu...
As soon as the gun rang out, two bullets penetrated his chest, instantly knocking the horse off his horse...
"Da da da... bang bang bang..."
The commandos and snipers scattered around pulled the triggers at the same time. In the blink of an eye, nearly twenty horses in the cavalry squadron lost their owners.
After Huang Yu finished shooting, he pointed the gun at another Japanese soldier thirty meters away.
The surprise attack came too suddenly. The Japanese soldier was still riding on horseback with his upper body straight, and he didn't have time to take any precautions.
Huang Yu decisively pulled the trigger. In order to ensure the hit rate, he fired six bullets in a row before stopping. Then he moved to the side. The submachine gun in his hand was aimed at the third cavalryman at the same time, and he fired while moving...
After killing three Japanese cavalrymen in a row, he put away his submachine gun and ran to the next shooting position.
The captain of the cavalry squadron was particularly unlucky. He was targeted by a sniper when he entered Bao Valley.
The bullet passed through his chest and took his life on the spot.
Facing the sudden blow, the squadron leader and the two squad leaders were all killed in the first round of fire, and the surviving little Japs immediately fell into a brief chaos.
It wasn't until Captain Cao stepped forward that he stabilized the morale of the troops and hurriedly called for the troops to withdraw from Baogu.
The enemy is in the dark, but we are in the open. The opponent is also equipped with a large number of submachine guns and has a lot of troops. If we continue to fight, we will definitely suffer the loss.
But in the eyes of the special operations team, this is not a place where they can come and leave whenever they want.
There are still more than thirty cavalrymen out of more than seventy, and there are less than two special forces members participating in the battle. The cooked duck will definitely not let them fly away.
As soon as the Japs were about to turn around, a new round of bullets flew towards them... More than a dozen Japs fell over before they could complete the U-turn.
Now that the battle has begun, the special forces no longer need to hide. They decisively break out of Baogu and attack the remaining Japs...
The Japanese captain was observing the battle through a telescope.
He didn't know what was happening in Baogu, but he could clearly see that his cavalry were being shot and fell off their horses...
The exchange of fire lasted for less than a minute, and no soldiers on horseback could be seen in Baogudi...
He started to be afraid...
Before, he was only a little worried about the Eighth Route Army in Bao Valley, fearing that they would cause heavy casualties to the quick reaction brigade.
It feels completely different now.
The opponent's attack wiped out the two cavalry squads, which shows that the Eighth Route Army in Bao Valley is very strong.
Then they concentrated their artillery to bombard the transport vehicles, making it clear that they wanted to keep the quick-reaction brigade here... Could it be that they wanted to annihilate the quick-reaction brigade here...
The captain was shocked by this idea, but the more he thought about it, the more he realized that his deduction was correct. Staring at the battlefield where the gunfire gradually subsided, he urgently ordered: "We can't stay here any longer!"
"The enemy is stronger than I thought. We must force them back immediately and withdraw to Baoding!"
"The heavy machine gun squadron provides cover, and an infantry squadron is sent to the edge of the valley to burn all the stalks where the enemy is hiding, leaving them with nowhere to hide."
"Either expose yourself and fight us, or retreat!"
"The engineers will immediately clean up the bombed cars on the road. We will withdraw as soon as the Eighth Route Army withdraws and go directly back to Baoding!"
The adjutant knew in his heart that the captain's decision was right.
The artillery unit of the quick reaction brigade lost more than half, the infantry squadron was wiped out, and the cavalry squadron was completely destroyed. Even if they kill Junping, it will not have much effect.
There are a large number of Eighth Route Army troops watching around, and they will definitely not let the troops get there easily.
If one or two more infantry squadrons were lost on the road, not only would it be impossible to reinforce Junpei, but they would also be beaten into pieces and the quick reaction brigade would be trapped together.
Immediately accept the order: "I'll make arrangements now!"
Huang Yu was leading a special force to clean up the battlefield and strap the equipment and ammunition from the Japs cavalry onto their horses...
While I was busy, a row of thick smoke suddenly rose at the edge of the valley.
After a while, the black smoke turned into a raging fire and quickly spread towards the battlefield!
"No... the little devil is going to burn the corn and straw and make us lose our hiding place. Everyone, retreat quickly and take away the weapons and ammunition. We don't want other trophies!"
