Changyong had already led his troops from Hangjin Banner and headed towards the Yikezhao League with great momentum, while the cavalry squadron responsible for clearing the way for the large army had already set off in advance.
The terrain of the Hetao is relatively flat, with only some hills in the east and south.
Kobayashi Shuichi can clearly see the grassland more than ten miles away without a telescope.
Kobayashi Shuichi is the squadron leader of the cavalry squadron. Logically speaking, as the squadron leader, he does not need to personally lead a squad and serve as the vanguard. However, this little devil loves hunting. In other words, the reason why Kobayashi Shuichi personally leads a cavalry squadron is
The team serves as the vanguard to satisfy their hunting addiction.
At this moment, Xiaolin Xiuyi was leading more than 20 horsemen, galloping on the grassland.
As the horse was galloping, a private suddenly shouted: "Squadron leader, look, there is a yurt in front of us?"
Kobayashi Shuichi turned around while running and looked in the direction of the private's finger. Sure enough, he saw a white felt bag on the horizon in the distance. Needless to say, this must be a yurt.
A first-class soldier said: "Captain, if there are yurts, there will be herdsmen, and there will be fat cattle and sheep!"
"Maybe there will be Mongolian women." Another Japanese private said, raising his hand and making a Mongolian dance gesture, and the other twenty or so Japanese cavalrymen immediately burst into laughter.
Kobayashi Shuichi was also a little moved. Speaking of which, it had been almost half a month since he had touched a woman.
At that moment, Xiaolin Xiuyi reined in his horse's head and galloped towards the yurt. The more than twenty riders behind him reined in their horses one after another, followed Xiaolin Xiuyi, and galloped towards the yurt.
After a while, the yurt was right in front of us.
This is a ger that lives alone, and there seems to be no man there. There is only a graceful woman milking cows in the open space in front of the ger. In addition, there is a little girl with pigtails. The little girl was the first to discover the Japanese.
The cavalryman suddenly ran to his mother's side in a panic like a frightened rabbit.
When the Mongolian woman discovered the Japanese cavalry, she immediately panicked and hurriedly led the little girl to the stable. It seemed that she wanted to get on the horse and escape, but at this time, how could the Japanese cavalry let them do so? With a whistle, Xiao Lin
The twenty or so riders behind Xiuyi immediately scattered in all directions.
"Haha, I didn't expect that there really is a flower girl here." Xiuyi Xiaolin galloped on his horse, looking up to the sky and laughing loudly, "That little girl is mine, no one is allowed to snatch it from me, that woman belongs to you." What a beast,
Kobayashi Shuichi is such a beast, even a six or seven-year-old girl can have such thoughts.
However, this beast's dirty intentions are destined to come to nothing this time.
Before the Japanese could catch up with the fleeing mother and daughter, dozens of horsemen suddenly rushed out of the woods not far away.
Seeing the dozens of cavalry, the mother and daughter suddenly felt like they had seen a savior, and immediately rode up to meet them. However, Xiaolin Xiuyi and the more than 20 Japanese cavalrymen behind him were frightened, and they invariably slowed down their horses because they were coming from the other side.
With their uniforms, it can be seen that this is a regular cavalry, which may be the Chahar Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army.
After a while, the mother and daughter, who were galloping on horseback, passed the dozens of horses and disappeared behind the horizon.
Kobayashi Shuichi could tell that the dozens of Chinese cavalry were coming with bad intentions, so he was not in a hurry to attack. Instead, he ordered the more than 20 cavalry behind him to line up and then move forward slowly. The Chinese cavalry opposite did not show any signs of attack.
Avoiding it, they formed a tit-for-tat formation to meet them. Soon, the distance between the two sides was less than 500 meters.
"Huh..." Xiaolin Xiuyi reined in the war horse, and then slowly raised his right hand. The more than twenty Japanese cavalrymen who followed behind him reined in the war horses. Almost at the same time, the Chinese cavalry on the opposite side also reined in the horses.
The war horses, separated by a distance of 500 meters, began to stare at each other.
"Yo Xi." Xiaolin Xiuyi immediately became excited when he saw the Chinese cavalry getting ready to fight.
At that moment, Kobayashi Shuichi slowly drew out his saber. However, just when he raised his saber and was about to give an order, the commander of the Chinese cavalry on the opposite side suddenly took a few steps forward on his horse and pointed his saber at him very provocatively.
Xiaolin Xiuyi guessed the other party's intention immediately, but he couldn't believe it.
At that moment, Kobayashi Shuichi did not swing his saber. Instead, he stretched out his left hand and pointed at his nose, meaning: "You want to challenge me to a duel?"
The commander of the Chinese cavalry on the other side nodded vigorously, meaning, it’s you!
"Baga!" Xiaolin Xiuyi immediately became angry when he saw this. As mentioned earlier, most of the Japanese cavalrymen came from samurai families, and all of them had high self-esteem. How could they tolerate Chi Guoguo's provocation? At that moment, Xiaolin Xiuyi gently used his legs to
As soon as he pinched the horse's belly, the flaming-red Oriental horse immediately kicked off its four hooves and rushed forward like a wind.
The commander of the Chinese cavalry on the opposite side showed no sign of weakness and also urged his horse to come forward.
The two cavalry clashed, and soon the distance was less than twenty meters. Xiaolin Xiuyi laughed ferociously, and even began to envision in his mind the scene of beheading the commander of the Chinese cavalry. However, at this moment, the commander of the Chinese cavalry
Suddenly he took out a box cannon from his back, and immediately pointed the black muzzle at Shuichi Kobayashi.
"Baga, you cunning Chinese!" Xiao Linxiu was startled and quickly hid in a stirrup.
Hearing two gunshots, Xiaolin Xiuyi suddenly felt a light on his head, but his military cap was blown away.
In the blink of an eye, the two cavalry had passed each other. Xiaolin Xiuyi was worried about becoming a target, so he kept hiding his body on the side of the saddle until the distance between the two sides was at least 100 meters before he finally sat up again. At this time, the commander of the Chinese cavalry
But they had already made a big circle and fled towards their own formation in a hurry.
Xiaolin Xiuyi was so angry that he immediately raised his saber and used it. More than 20 Japanese cavalrymen lined up were immediately swept up by the flood that broke the embankment. Seeing this, the Chinese cavalrymen on the opposite side turned their horses in unison and headed towards
The horse galloped in the direction he came from, but he actually fled without a fight.
…
At the same time, Chang Yong was riding his horse on the official road from Hangjin Banner to Yike Zhao League.
According to regulations, those at the Changyong level are eligible to be equipped with vehicles. However, unfortunately, as the Far East Battle gradually deepened, the Kwantung Army began to feel the difficulty, especially the number of damaged transport trucks far exceeded expectations. In addition,
The Kwantung Army originally had few trucks, so it had no choice but to ask for help from the Mongolian army.
In contrast, the Mongolian Army's need for trucks is not urgent, because both Chahar and Suiyuan are mostly flat grassland terrains. In this kind of terrain, flatbed carriages can also take on the heavy task of transportation. Some
At times, they were even more useful than trucks. Because of this, the Mongolian Army gave almost all of its trucks to the Kwantung Army. As a result, a colonel of Chang Yong's level could only ride a horse.
While they were marching, a fast horse suddenly galloped back from the front.
In less than a moment, the man on the fast horse had arrived in front of Chang Yong. When Chang Yong took a closer look, he found that it was actually Kono, the deputy squadron leader of the cavalry squadron, and he looked anxious.
Changyong asked: "Kono-kun, what happened?"
"Hai." Kono nodded heavily and replied, "Just now, we were provoked by the Chinese cavalry. Mr. Xiaolin was so angry that he flew into a rage and led the cavalry squadron to hunt down the Chinese cavalry."
"Nani?" Chang Yong said anxiously, "Before you set off, didn't I tell you repeatedly? The opponent we face this time is extremely cunning and dangerous, so the only thing you have to do is to search for the enemy and investigate.
Do you know whether there is an ambush from the Chinese army ahead? Who asked you to chase down the Chinese cavalry?"
"Hai." Kono said with a bitter smile, "Kobayashi-kun insists on chasing him, and his humble position can't stop him."
"Baga!" Chang Yong immediately became angry when he heard this, and said viciously, "Kono-kun, you immediately go after Xiaolin-kun. When you catch up, you must tell him that if he doesn't want to be sent to a military court, then stop it immediately.
Chase.”
"Hai." Kono nodded heavily, then galloped away on horseback.
…
Unfortunately, it was already too late.
Just when Kono reported to Changyong, Kobayashi Shuichi had already led the main force of the cavalry squadron to chase the Chinese cavalry to a river bank covered with reeds.
Things have to start from half an hour ago.
Half an hour ago, Kobayashi Shuichi was completely angered by the Chinese cavalry commander's unscrupulous performance. He immediately led more than 20 cavalry to pursue him. As a result, he encountered a large group of Chinese cavalry during the pursuit. After the fight, the Japanese suffered a loss.
Xiao Linxiu suddenly became more and more angry, and immediately transferred the entire cavalry squadron.
Facing the attack of more than a hundred Japanese cavalry, almost the same number of Chinese cavalry did not dare to fight and turned around and ran away.
Kobayashi Shuichi was not surprised by the poor performance of the Chinese cavalry, because since the September 18th Incident, he had fought against too many Chinese cavalry and knew what the level of the Chinese cavalry was, so he was not surprised.
Not even thinking that this was a trick by the Chinese cavalry, he immediately led the entire cavalry squadron to pursue and kill him.
After half an hour of chasing, Kobayashi Shuichi finally drove the Chinese cavalry to the river beach.
This river beach is a several-shaped bay. Except for the direction from which it came, the other three sides are rivers. Although the river is not deep and cannot pass the horse's belly, it is wide enough. If the Chinese cavalry wants to cross this river beach, they must
It will take at least more than a quarter of an hour, but this time is enough for them to catch up. Then, the Chinese cavalry trapped in the river beach will become a living target for them to practice shooting. Xiaolin Xiuyi is sure that the nearly a hundred Chinese cavalry in front will be beaten by them.
Shoot them all.
Thinking of this, Xiaolin Xiuyi immediately became excited, raised his saber high and shouted: "Quick, quick, quick, catch up, kill all the Chinese cavalry, die, die..."
PS: I see a lot of reading reminders. It’s like this. This month is really not possible. I will resume three updates in September after my son starts school.
