The squadron leader of the Japanese No. 1 Squadron is a wild militarist, but he has rich combat experience. He has grown from a soldier to today's status entirely by relying on his military exploits. When it comes to fighting, he is better than every other soldier.
Personal experience is rich.
When he saw his brigade's baggage, artillery and other technical arms being ambushed, and looked at the eight-way firepower equipment used to ambush the imperial army, the squadron leader immediately guessed that the Chinese army wanted these weapons and ammunition. If he hit the muzzle of the gun, he would undoubtedly
It was to increase the results of the Chinese army, so the squadron leader wisely chose to retreat, find strong terrain, and hold on for reinforcements, because he knew that with the firepower of his squadron and the ammunition on his body, he could persist for a day without heavy weapons.
There is absolutely no problem,
When he received the order from the group leader to retreat and stand by for help, the squadron leader became more confident. Through observation, the squadron leader discovered a village in front of him. Looking around, only this village had the highest terrain, so
This village became the best place for the squadron leader to hold his position.
The squadron leader quickly gathered his troops and attacked Gongjiazhuang. Gao Yuan, the commander of the second regiment, was guarding a slope in front of Gongjiazhuang. On the slope, troops of a battalion were lying in the ditch one after another. Gao Yuan looked at
With a Japanese squadron of 250 troops, they formed a skirmish line and attacked Gongjiazhuang in no particular order. They immediately felt that their front-line troops were insufficient. However, it seemed that it was too late at this time. The Japanese troops of a Japanese squadron had already reached the hillside.
Below, it will soon be within the range of its own firepower.
Looking at the sparse attack formation of the Japanese, Gao Yuan gave up the heavy weapon mortars behind the position, because he knew that with this formation of the Japanese, one round of his mortars could not give the Japanese a certain degree of lethality.
At best it's a waste of shells.
"Order the 1st Battalion to start counterattack immediately after the Japanese enter the fire range. The Japanese must not be allowed to get close to 100 meters in front of the position, and have the 2nd Battalion immediately rush behind the 1st Battalion's position to stand by."
"Da da da... 3..." The four heavy machine guns on the first battalion's position opened fire, but the effect was not very good. Only a few Japanese were hit. The remaining Japanese fell down quickly after hearing the sound of the heavy machine guns.
, began to fight back with the rifle in his hand. The distance of 300 meters is the best range for the elite Japs. At this distance, they can hit a battalion of soldiers on the position very well, and for
For Chinese soldiers, it is already difficult to hit the target accurately at 300 meters. This is the gap. Soon, the first battalion began to suffer casualties. But it seemed that only a few Japanese soldiers fell.
"We can't continue shooting like this, otherwise the soldiers will suffer big losses." The political commissar next to him reminded him immediately when he saw the situation on the battlefield. But as the regiment leader, Gao Yuan was also very anxious, but he couldn't find a feasible way.
Shelling will affect the field of vision of the soldiers. Not only can it not kill the Japanese, but it can also indirectly help the Japanese. Charge, not to mention, is not possible. At a distance of 300 meters, there is no telling how many soldiers will fall. Now we can only rely on the advantage of large numbers of people.
Slowly consume the enemy's ammunition and troops.
Captain Gao Yuan thought of this and shook his head helplessly. "Let the soldiers take cover,"
Similarly, did Liu Hua, who was standing at the command post observing the battlefield, also see this situation? "Damn, the little devil is really cunning." Liu Hua cursed fiercely.
"Brigade Commander, now is not the time to curse. If you delay for one more minute, the soldiers of the Second Regiment will suffer more casualties. Brigadier, let the cavalry come up." The political commissar Guan Xiangying next to him immediately reminded him.
The reason why the political commissar believes so much in the power of the cavalry is because the results of the first company of the cavalry battalion just now gave him enough confidence. Before the battle started, the first company of the cavalry battalion was ordered to eliminate the Japanese cavalry squad. In order to achieve the power of a surprise attack, the first company commander sent the entire
The entire cavalry company hid in Gongjiazhuang, where the Japanese had just passed, waiting for the Japanese cavalry to come and die.
Sure enough, after the battle started, the Japanese cavalry squad quickly turned their horses and rushed towards the bottom of Huangya just passing by, trying to use their cavalry raid advantage to rescue the trapped imperial soldiers. Otherwise, after returning, the cavalry squad leader
He will definitely go to court-martial. After all, it was his poor investigation that led to the main force of the Imperial Army being surrounded by Eighth Route Army soldiers.
The first company commander kept staring at the Japanese cavalry squad of more than 40 people through the telescope. When he saw the Japanese turning their horses, he immediately ordered his cavalry company to prepare for battle. Looking at the cavalry squad galloping over, he said, "One thousand
Meters, we finally reached the best attacking distance. Go ahead." The cavalry company commander took the lead and was the first to rush out of Gongjiazhuang. He raised the saber in his hand and rushed toward the Japanese not far away.
Similarly, the Japs' cavalry squad also discovered a cavalry group that suddenly rushed out of the village. The number was more than twice as many as theirs. "Baga, you fell into the Eighth Route Army's trick." The Japs' cavalry squad leader cursed loudly.
, but at this time, the distance between the two armies was only about 500 meters. For the two galloping cavalry, it was only a matter of seconds. The Japanese wanted to retreat, but there was no chance to turn. In an instant, the two charging cavalry
They collided together, leaving only the sound of horse hooves and the hiss of sabers cutting into flesh. In just a few seconds, the cavalry company had already rushed through the place where the two armies had just collided. At this time, there were people lying everywhere in that place.
There were corpses, including those from the Eighth Route Army and those belonging to the Japanese, and dozens of war horses standing alone in the open field. The air was filled with the faintest smell of blood.
First of all, the first company lost a total of 9 soldiers, and then looking at the Japanese cavalry team, there are now less than ten cavalry left on horses, confronting the soldiers of the first company. "Come on." The first company said again.
A charge was launched, and the two armies collided again. The sound of metal colliding with each other and the neighing of horses rang out again. This time, the company lost three soldiers in exchange for the remaining Japanese cavalry.
Looking at the dozens of war horses in front of him, the first company commander quickly ordered one squad of troops to be left behind to clean the battlefield, and the remaining soldiers immediately gathered at the headquarters to wait for orders.
The political commissar was excited after seeing such results. He knew the power of cavalry against cavalry. What the political commissar wanted to see now was the power of cavalry against infantry.
"Order, the first and second cavalry companies will immediately move behind the Japanese squadron. The specific position will be determined by the battalion commander himself. Once they arrive at the position, they will immediately launch a charge. They must knock off at least half of the Japanese heads in the first round of charge.
"Then, Liu Hua ordered, "Send a report to Commander Gao, saying that in about ten minutes, the cavalry battalion will launch a charge against the Japanese infantry squadron. Please cooperate in time." After saying the order, Liu Hua picked up the telescope again and
Watch the final battle.
At this time, the soldiers of the first battalion had suffered heavy casualties. Almost as soon as the soldiers showed their heads, they would be attacked by the Japanese army, especially the machine gunners. The soldiers were anxious, and the regiment commander Gao Yuan was even more anxious.
This is the emergency telegram from the brigade commander.
"Order the soldiers to try not to show their heads. After holding on for 10 minutes, we will win in just ten minutes. The brigade commander sent out the cavalry battalion to charge from behind the Japanese." After reading the telegram, Gao Yuan said excitedly to the political commissar next to him.
Ten minutes passed very quickly. Wang Hu, the commander of the cavalry battalion, came to a place that he had already spotted. From here to the Japanese position, there was only less than 1,000 meters away. The cavalry could arrive in less than half a minute, and here
It can also have the effect of surprising troops, because there is a short ridge between here and the Japanese position, but it does not affect the cavalry charge.
"The first company will outflank and charge to the left, the second company will outflank and charge to the right, and start attacking immediately." After issuing the order, battalion commander Zhang Hu jumped on his horse and rushed towards the Japanese position with the first company.
"Rumble..." It seemed that the whole earth was ringing. The power of 200 horses charging together was still very shocking. The commander of the second regiment who was guarding the position suddenly became relaxed when he heard the sound, "Comrades, cavalry
The battalion has begun to charge, and everyone is ready to prevent the Japanese from jumping over the wall." The regiment leader immediately reminded.
At this time, the Japanese squadron leader felt uncomfortable. When he heard the roar of the war horses, the first thing that came to his mind was that reinforcements from the empire had arrived. But when he turned around, this wish was immediately shattered.
The two cavalrymen behind him were diagonally thrusting towards his two wings. Looking at this posture, they were trying to surround his entire squadron, and the squadron leader knew that without the support of heavy weapons, the infantry faced the cavalry, except for
There is no alternative but to be slaughtered.
"Immediately deploy a small team and set up defenses behind to prevent the Eighth Route Cavalry's attack." Seeing that he only had two small teams left, the squadron leader immediately ordered. Although he knew that this small team was simply unable to complete this task, as a team leader
An excellent commander should delay the eight-pronged attack as much as possible.
However, is it possible to mobilize a small team? When facing the Second Regiment's position, the Japs may be able to dodge the Eighth Route Army's bullets, but when they turn around to deal with the cavalry, there is no way to hide your body. Those Japs who turned around
They were all hit by the heavy machine guns on the position and fell to the ground.
Seeing this situation, the Japs no longer dared to show their heads, and many people began to pray for the blessing of "Amaterasu". However, what the Japs did not expect at this time was that they were now on the land of China, and "Amaterasu" would
Take care of them?
The cavalry battalion was like two sharp swords, inserted into the two wings of the Japanese. When the saber was waved, a Japanese soldier's head rolled off his neck. The two cavalrymen were like two long dragons. After hitting the Japanese on both wings, they immediately turned around.
The horse's head was inserted into the middle, constantly shuttling back and forth on the Japanese's position.
"The political commissar at the brigade headquarters looked at the scene in front of him, and his hands holding the binoculars began to tremble. "Oh my god, I never thought that the Japanese infantry, which had always been invincible, would be slaughtered in front of the cavalry. Today I finally saw the cavalry.
The power of it.”
"Political Commissar, we are a bit lucky in this battle. You must know that the Japs do not have heavy firepower. If the Japs have emergency stop heavy machine guns, I will not dare to send out the cavalry battalion. Okay, it is over, we
It’s time to go back.” After hearing the political commissar’s sigh, brigade commander Liu Hua immediately answered with a smile.
