On the Zhouzhuang battlefield, the gunfire that the Japanese captain was anxiously waiting for finally rang out!
Seeing that the retreating cavalry squadron was almost completely wiped out, my face felt burning pain, and the pent-up anger began to bubble up!
In the end, he couldn't hold back anymore and yelled: "The artillery will blow up hard for me. I will blow up all the Eighth Route Army soldiers in Zhuangzi. I will blow up the entire Zhuangzi to the ground and blow up all the Eighth Route Army soldiers inside. They will die in battle."
Cavalry takes revenge!”
As the rumbling sound of cannons became more and more intensive, the anger on the captain's face finally dissipated a lot!
"Woooooooo..."
Suddenly, a series of piercing screams suddenly sounded above the head!
As a veteran on the battlefield, identifying the type of artillery shells by sound is an ability he has long mastered!
As soon as the scream sounded, his expression changed, his relaxed nerves became tense again, and he screamed!
"Baga, it's a mountain cannon shell..."
"Our mountain artillery hasn't been set up yet. This must be the Eighth Route Army's mountain artillery, and the shells are flying towards us. Everyone, take cover..."
"Boom boom boom..."
As soon as I finished speaking, an explosion rang in my ears, the sound was extremely loud!
As soon as the captain threw himself on the ground under the protection of the guards, he felt a wave of hot air sweep over his back!
Just one glance in the direction of the explosion made the captain want to vomit blood!
Because the troops were gathered together and the formation was too dense, every shell falling from the sky caused huge casualties to the troops!
Around the nearest impact point, more than a dozen of his subordinates were lying in a mess!
Some were killed on the spot, paralyzed on the ground motionless! Some were directly blown to pieces, and their bodies were dismembered into many parts, scattered everywhere! Others were injured, squirming on the ground with faces in pain, and could be heard from time to time.
A heartbreaking scream!
"Quick, the captain of the protection brigade moves immediately. It's too dangerous here. It happens to be the shelling area of the mountain artillery!" During the shelling break, the guard captain immediately ordered!
Dozens of Japs were guarding the captain. They had just walked less than ten meters when the explosion went off again!
"Sir, the explosion came from the artillery position, it was a mortar shell!" shouted the adjutant who was moving with him!
"The Eighth Route Army that is blocking us is also equipped with mortars and is shelling our mortar squadron!"
The captain's face was full of anger, and he ordered without thinking: "The artillery squadron will counterattack immediately to destroy the mortars equipped by the Eighth Route Army, and then continue to bomb their positions and destroy their light and heavy machine guns!"
"Order the mountain artillery squadron and infantry artillery squad to set up the artillery immediately, counterattack the Eighth Route Army's mountain artillery unit, and kill them!"
"The Eighth Route Army has mountain artillery, and so do we! I believe our gunners, even if the number of mountain artillery is not as large as that of the Eighth Route Army, can easily kill them!"
The adjutant immediately accepted the order: "Hey, I'm going to give the order immediately!"
Even if the puppet troops for more than a thousand days encountered a blocking position, they would not be able to gather together!
Everyone gathered on the road, and the formation stretched for more than 500 meters!
Mountain artillery and infantry artillery are tied to mule horses and need to be reassembled before they can be set up!
After receiving the counterattack order, more than a hundred gunners immediately took action, cleared an area on the road more than 500 meters away from the battlefield, and began to set up artillery!
The gunners were not idle either. Boxes of shells were brought out and fuses were installed, intending to hit the Eighth Route Army soon!
Around the artillery position, a small group of Japanese soldiers were guarding the surroundings, on alert with guns!
On the road between the artillery position and the battlefield, groups of eight mountain artillery shells continued to rain down! In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, all the Japs who were still alive had left the road and were dispersed in small groups on both sides of the road, waiting for orders!
The forest where the cavalry battalion was hiding was exactly two kilometers away from Zhouzhuang. Because the Japs gathering area was too long and the artillery positions were too far back, the cavalry battalion was less than 1,500 meters away from the nearest Japs!
When the battle started, the cavalry battalion and the guard company set off!
Under the cover of the night and the sound of gunfire on the battlefield, it was easy to reach a position seven or eight hundred meters away from the Japanese!
The Japs were all holding torches. Battalion Commander Zhou Wu could clearly see their every move, but the Japs could not see them!
"Batalion Commander, the Japanese are all focused on the battlefield, do you want us to get closer?" asked the commander of the first cavalry company!
Zhou Wu shook his head and replied: "You can't come any closer!"
"Although the Japs can't see us, we can't see the guard posts where the Japs might be hiding in the darkness!"
"Although more than seven hundred meters is a bit far, it just allows our cavalry to increase their speed and use the fastest assault speed to engage the little devils. In this way, the cavalry's assault advantage can be brought into play, and we can attack them with minimal casualties.
Position, kill them!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Wu frowned!
A pair of eyes became hotter and hotter, and he immediately shouted: "The Little Japanese Mountain Artillery Squadron has begun to set up artillery!"
"All troops are mounted and ready to attack!"
"A continuous attack on the mountain artillery position where the Japanese are setting up artillery. After knocking it down, continue to attack the infantry!"
"The second company and I will attack from the front, and the third and fourth companies will cover the attack from the wings. We will divide our troops into four groups and rush directly into their position!!"
"Tonight, each company will have a killing competition. Let's see which company kills the most little Japs and suffers the fewest casualties!"
"Everyone mount up and attack with me!"
The guard company followed closely behind the cavalry. Seeing the cavalry start to move, Sun Jiawu followed the order and said: "We will also attack!"
"The fire platoon and a platoon assault the Japanese artillery positions, and the others will follow me to assault the main Japanese force. We will follow wherever the cavalry kills, and kill all the fish that have not been killed by the cavalry battalion!"
"Rumble..."
Nearly four hundred cavalrymen slowly accelerated, and the assault speed became faster and faster!
The sound of horse hooves, which was silent at first, gradually became louder, and finally sounded like thunder on the battlefield!
The little devils on the mountain artillery camp were the first to realize the danger!
However, the night was too late, and they could only hear the sound of horse hooves getting closer and closer to them, but they could not see the cavalry, and they could not distinguish between ourselves and the enemy!
There is a cavalry unit on each route of the mopping up force that enters the base of the Independent Regiment. It is possible for them to rush back to Lingqiu in front of the infantry!
Therefore, although the Japs guarding the artillery camp were very nervous and held their rifles and crooked handles tightly in their hands, none of them dared to shoot!
If the one who rushes over is one of our own, and he shoots rashly and causes accidental injury, he will not be able to explain why he jumped into the Yellow River!
"Rumble..."
The sound of horse hooves got closer and closer, and the assault distance of more than 700 meters was shortened to half in the blink of an eye. The assault speed of the cavalry also increased to the extreme!
"Shoot, they are enemies, not our own!" a Japanese lieutenant shouted decisively!
"If they are our own people, they will definitely be reduced now and will never charge towards us! Not only does the opponent's speed not slow down, but it is getting faster and faster. They must be the enemy! It is the Eighth Route Army. They want to use cavalry to attack us. Let's start immediately.
Gun, stop them!"
