A series of gunshots and explosions suddenly rang out behind where twenty cars were parked.
The infantry squadron leader's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and he immediately raised his telescope and looked behind him.
"No, the Eighth Route Army is attacking the convoy!" The squadron leader's face suddenly turned pale and he shouted.
"I only left a small detachment at the convoy. There was at least one company of the Eighth Route Army attacking them. They will definitely not be able to defend it!"
"Suzuki-kun, we must fight back immediately and rescue those cars!"
"There is only one car transport team in the entire Lingqiu City. If we lose it here, the commander will never let us go!"
After saying that, the squadron leader shouted to his subordinates behind him: "Attention all troops, the target car transport team, attack and advance, and kill the Eighth Route Army attacking them!"
The captain of the cavalry squadron also knew the importance of these cars and immediately ordered: "The cavalry squadron attacks me and reinforces the car transport team!"
"Rumble..."
More than twenty war horses quickly started galloping faster and faster.
The squadron leader was the first to draw his saber and assume a chopping stance.
The Eighth Route Army that we just attacked had defensive positions and many machine guns, so we suffered a big loss.
The Eighth Route Army attacking the convoy was just the opposite. Not only did they have no defensive positions, but they were also scattered on the road. Even machine guns were unable to concentrate their firepower on themselves.
As long as he leads his men into the battlefield, relying on the powerful assault ability of the cavalry, he will definitely be able to disrupt the formation of the Eighth Route Army, and then kill them all like chopping melons and vegetables.
The squadron leader, who had been holding back his anger, decided to use the next battle to vent all his anger.
More than a dozen Japanese guards, plus more than twenty auto soldiers who were not even equipped with rifles, faced the security company with the most veterans in the independent battalion and collapsed at the first touch.
Together with Li Hao's strengthened backup machine gun, a total of ten crooked weapons fired at the same time. In the blink of an eye, more than half of the dozens of Japs were killed or injured. And almost all of them were Japs guards.
"There are still a dozen Japanese who want to run ahead. Chase them as a platoon and kill them!" Xiao Yuan, holding a box cannon in his hand, rushed onto the road and shouted to the platoon leader in front of him.
"Company commander, the main Japanese army is coming, and there are more than twenty cavalry!" shouted the guard next to him.
"Keep them back and never let them take back these cars!" Xiao Yuan made the decision without hesitation!
"Come over with all the machine guns and line up to intercept the little Japanese cavalry!"
"The battalion commander said that the cavalry are afraid of machine guns. As long as we concentrate the machine guns and fire, we will definitely be able to stop them!"
"Rumble..."
The sound of horse hooves became louder and louder. Under the moonlight, when everyone could see clearly the figure of the Japanese cavalry with their sabers raised, Xiao Yuan spoke!
"Concentrate your firepower and hit me hard!"
Except for the two machine guns taken away in one row, the remaining eight were all placed in front of Xiao Yuan with crooked handles. Each machine gun was separated by more than one meter.
Shooting together, the eight tongues of fire look particularly dazzling under the cover of night.
The flying bullets intertwined with each other, forming an airtight steel storm in front of the Japanese.
The cavalry were very fast, but as soon as they bumped into them, bullets would instantly make several bloody holes. Some fell off their horses, and some fell to the ground with both men and horses.
"How is that possible? How come they have so many machine guns!" The cavalry squadron leader was frightened, with a look of disbelief on his face.
Seeing his subordinates being killed one after another, the squadron leader became anxious and shouted loudly: "Assault on the right wing of the convoy. We will not attack anymore. We will bypass the battlefield. The Eighth Route Army's machine gun firepower is too strong and we cannot rush through!"
The infantry squadron leader who then attacked was also confused. When he saw the cavalry avoiding the battle, he hesitated whether he should also avoid the battle and abandon the convoy.
"Sir, the Eighth Route Army's firepower is too fierce. Even if we attack with all our strength, we can't take it down immediately. Whether to continue the attack or to bypass the convoy and retreat directly, you have to make a decision quickly!" the adjutant urged.
"Sir, the Eighth Route Army in the blocking position has rushed over and is heading towards us!" the voice of the team leader from behind also came, very anxious.
The squadron leader who looked hesitant finally responded: "Baghe Road, the Eighth Route Army wants to attack us from both front and rear!"
"Sir, the remaining cavalry in the cavalry squadron suffered more than half of their casualties in the attack just now. They sent a signal and suggested that we bypass the convoy and retreat directly!"
"Da da da... boom boom boom..."
The sudden gunshots and explosions behind him became the last straw for the squadron leader.
"Sir, the Eighth Route Army that has rushed out of the position is attacking our rear troops, and their mortars have also fired!" the rear team leader reported hurriedly.
"Retreat!" the squadron leader shouted with determination.
"Suzuki-kun is right, this is a conspiracy, a typical tactic of encircling a point to get reinforcements. We have already lost a lot of troops here, we must not be fooled again!"
"The troops will retreat immediately, bypassing the convoy and retreat directly..."
The Japanese infantry squadron abandoned a dozen corpses and just ran away, when Li Hao led a company to kill them with the rear legs.
"Battal Commander, the guard company successfully captured the Japanese convoy. Six of the twenty cars were bombed, and fourteen cars were left intact. All the car soldiers and Japanese escorts were killed!" Xiao Yuan found Li Hao and reported.
road.
"Good fight!" Li Hao replied with satisfaction.
"Although you didn't kill many Japs, it was still a great achievement to seize so many cars and force the Japs to run back to the county town!"
"These cars are treasures. Not only can they transport things, but the engine can also be removed to generate electricity and provide power for equipment. They have many functions!"
"Without further ado, the Japs ran back to the county town on two legs, and we also ran on two legs. I believe we can run faster than the Japs on two legs. Xiao Yuan, do you have the confidence to catch up and continue to kill the Japs and retreat in vain?
"
"Have confidence!" Xiao Yuan replied with an eager look on his face.
"Then let's set off now, but we must remember that rabbits will bite when they are in a hurry. You must be calm during the chase. You must not underestimate the enemy or rush in. I don't want to hear anything again when this battle is almost over.
bad news!"
"Battal Commander, what should we do?" As soon as Xiao Yuan and his men left, Chen Bing rushed over and asked for a fight, unwilling to lag behind.
Li Hao shook his head and replied: "There are too many recruits in one company, so let's just chase them!"
"You clean up the battlefield and tally the results and casualties as soon as possible."
"Also, ask if there is anyone in the army who can drive a car!"
"Although cars are rare in our Eighth Route Army, there are a lot of equipment in the Jinsui Army. Many people in our independent battalion are former Jinsui Army!"
"These cars are treasures and must be shipped back to the base!"
"The most important thing is to ask the recruits in the company to make up for all the little devils. Even in the prison, the squad and platoon leader is responsible for supervising it. Every recruit must go there!"
At the Anji Town stronghold, more than a dozen huge torches were inserted into the ground, illuminating the stronghold brightly.
There were more than 180 recruits in the company who were still alive, and every one of them looked pale, and many of them were squatting next to them and vomiting.
Just now, for the first time on the battlefield, they not only had to face corpses and broken arms everywhere, but also had to deal with the corpses one by one. Being able to suppress the fear in their hearts and not vomiting at this time is considered courageous.
