Chapter 381

No matter how the Japanese cavalry choose, they need time.

And what they lack most now is time.

Six Type 92 heavy machine guns fired frantically at them, and dozens of bullets were flying in the air every second.

Although the cavalry lay on the horse's back, reducing the area of ​​shots they were shot, the six heavy machine guns arranged by Chen Zhengyu were not only firing at them. Except for a small number of bullets, they were still staring at the soldiers on the horse's back, and most of the bullets were fired at war horses.

The powerful penetration allows heavy machine gun bullets to easily penetrate into the body of the war horse.

"Boom..." A loud bang rang out among the cavalry, and the bombed war horse fell to the ground along with the soldiers on the horse's back.

The Japanese horseman's horse was very good. The moment the war horse hit the ground, it jumped off the horse's back, avoiding the ending of being injured.

But his good luck continued. A heavy machine gun bullet flew towards him and hit his thigh before he stood firm.

The cavalry behind wanted to avoid him, but the accident came too quickly and there was no time for him to react.

The heavily stomped horse hooves easily stepped on a hole in the Japanese chest, and blood splattered out of the wound, and the Japanese, who had half his life left, died in an instant.

The cavalry in front were killed one by one, while the cavalry behind had no intention of stopping and continued to assault forward.

The Japanese squadron leader obviously made the decision to attack the exit pocket array head-on.

But he far underestimated the power of the volley of six heavy machine guns.

It turned out that more and more cavalrymen were killed, their horses and cavalry bodies fell to the ground, becoming natural obstacles to prevent cavalry from assaulting forward.

Under the obstruction of these corpses, the cavalry's assault speed significantly slowed down, and six heavy machine guns had a longer time to shoot them.

The more cavalry die, the more obstacles there will be on the assault road, and the assault speed of the cavalry will become slower...

This is a vicious cycle, and the squadron leader quickly discovered this problem.

Seeing that one-third of the cavalry squadron had been killed or injured, they decided to change their orders: "The troops stopped advancing, all cavalry turned around, and the effective range of the heavy machine gun was withdrawn..."

The cavalry running wildly slowed down immediately.

The width of the road surface is limited, and there is no room for the war horses to turn around while running.

If the living Japanese want to turn around and retreat, they must stop and turn in place before they can re-accelerate the evacuation from the battlefield.

This also takes time.

When the Japanese completed their turn and prepared to accelerate their evacuation from the pocket formation, the cavalry squadron killed and injured one-third of the troops.

Six heavy machine guns rely on their long range and great power. They continue to shoot at the Japanese back, and they can kill one more.

In the end, less than twenty cavalrymen rushed out of the effective range of heavy machine guns alive.

Just when the cavalry squadron leader secretly thanked that he had escaped, a cavalry platoon suddenly rushed out of the hillside diagonally opposite.

"Take revenge!" These two words popped up in their minds as soon as the squadron leader saw them.

In the battle just now, the cavalry squadron was almost completely destroyed. If it retreated like this, the captain would definitely be furious and it would be possible to strike himself alive.

If dozens of cavalrymen of the National Savior Army could be killed? Seize some war horses? Recover some losses would definitely greatly reduce the brigade leader's anger.

When the enemy met, they were extremely jealous. Looking at the cavalry platoons rushing closer and closer on the hillside? The Japanese squadron leader quickly pulled out his command knife and held it high in his hand? He was full of murderous orders: "Prepare to fight and kill the Chinese cavalry in front? Avenge the warriors who died in battle... Kill them!"

The squadron leader waved forward the sabre held in his hand? The cavalry behind seemed to be instantly fed with chicken blood, and his fighting spirit was suddenly aroused. At the same time, he pulled out the sabre and rushed towards the opposite cavalry with a scream.

Regarding the next battle? The cavalry squadron leader took it for granted that the cavalry of both sides would collide together? He killed the opponent with his own excellent riding skills and the slashing skills.

The real battles are very different.

When the two sides were still fifty meters apart, the National Salvation Army directly opposite still did not raise its saber.

The Japanese squadron leader looked puzzled. Before he could figure it out, he saw the cavalry in the front suddenly take out a submachine gun from behind and shoot at him wildly.

The squadron leader was stunned by the accident. Before he could curse people, a burst of heart-wrenching pain spread rapidly from his chest and then he felt his physical strength disappear quickly? He couldn't even hold the reins and fell off the horse's back with a plop...

Zhou Cheng got nearly 100 submachine guns from the secret arsenal? In addition to the battlefield seizure and Yuan Shushan transported back from the arsenal, the National Salvation Army was equipped with more than 150 submachine guns.

In addition to equipping the guard platoons of each battalion? Reconnaissance Company of the regiment headquarters? Guard Company? Reconnaissance Detachment, Zhou Cheng deliberately took out more than 20 submachine guns to equip all squad platoon leaders of the cavalry company.

The National Salvation Army, which hedged against the Japanese, happened to be a cavalry platoon, equipped with four submachine guns, and fired at the same time. In less than three seconds, it fired a total of eighty bullets at the Japanese.

The two sides were very close, and there were almost no bullets empty. The two rows of cavalry rushed to the front as if they were cutting leeks. They all fell to the ground in one stroke, and there were less than ten cavalry left to continue rushing forward.

At this time, the soldiers of the cavalry platoon finally raised their saber.

"Boom..." The cavalry of both sides collided with each other.

The crisp sound of metal impact, the neighing of war horses, and the painful screams of soldiers... were quickly heard.

In the blink of an eye, the two troops rushed through the opponent's assault formation.

There were four left of the Japanese. More than ten war horses that had lost their masters were stopped at the place where they had just fought, most of which were national rescue troops.

It means that in the battle just now, each Japanese killed at least one cavalryman in the country-savior army!

After the second round of hedging began, all four Japanese fell on the battlefield, and the cavalry company also fell down four cavalry...

When Master Fang Jing led his troops to fight here, the troops participating in the National Salvation Army even took away the bodies of the war horses.

On the battlefield full of blood, only the cold corpses of the cavalry squadron were left.

The captain was furious and chased after the cavalry company's retreat without hesitation. He wanted to avenge the cavalry squadron.

But the revenge was not smooth. Major Fang Jing and his troops were like a group of monkeys, who were fooled by the National Rescue Army.

The captain felt the power of guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare for the first time.

After suffering several losses, I slowly understood the combat style of the National Salvation Army and constantly changed the combat methods, so the casualties of the troops became smaller and smaller.

Just as Master Fang Jing slowly adapted to the battlefield and was about to do the opposite and plan a counterattack, the radio operator suddenly ran over with a very nervous look.

"Captain, the county town urgently called: something happened to the third squadron of the encirclement and suppression of the city and the National Salvation Army, and more than 200 imperial troops below the squadron leader were destroyed."

"Captain Asakawa reminds us to strengthen our vigilance and hopes that we will withdraw from the county town as soon as possible to prevent the troops from being defeated by the National Rescue Army and the Eighth Route Army!"

The captain's face turned red and white, and he didn't believe in the fact that the third squadron was completely wiped out.

The adjutant chose to believe it because he thought of the cavalry squadron.

The National Salvation Army can eat the cavalry squadron and a more than one team of imperial troops in guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare, and will definitely eat the third squadron without understanding guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare.

Propose immediately: "Sir, I think Major Asagawa's proposal is correct."

"The National Salvation Army and the Eighth Route Army can concentrate their forces to eat our third squadron, and the remaining three squadrons may be targeted by them."

"We should immediately retreat to the county town, concentrate our forces to find the main force of the National Salvation Army and the Eighth Route Army, and then fight them to the decisive battle."

The captain looked at the adjutant and asked incredible words: "You believe that the Third Squadron was completely wiped out by the National Salvation Army!"

The adjutant nodded seriously: "Master Asagawa won't joke with us about such things."

"If there is no evidence, he will definitely not send this telegram!"

"And I believe that the National Salvation Army and the Eighth Route Army do have the strength to destroy one of our strengthening squadrons."

"I have just seen their guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare. I killed one of our cavalry squadrons and seventy or eighty infantry in just a few hours. This is simply unimaginable on the front battlefield, but they did it."

The cavalry squadron was the pain of the captain and his greatest shame.

Since he became the captain of the brigade, he has never fought such a frustrating battle. How many opponents are there, and how well the equipment is... he has not figured out all of them, and a cavalry squadron was wiped out.

As soon as he heard the deputy refer to the cavalry squadron, the captain's face sank.

Although I still don’t want to admit the fact that the third squadron was completely wiped out, the adjutant’s analysis is correct

After hesitating for a few seconds, he made a decision: "The front team changed to the back team, we retreat immediately, marched quickly to retreat to the county town, and did not give the enemy a chance to defeat us."

The deputy captain was very worried that Master Fang Jing would be stubborn and betrayed the whole cavalry squadron. He continued to be strong with the National Savior Army. Fortunately, he was persuaded at the last moment.

As afraid that he would regret it in the middle of the journey, he quickly took the order: "I'll make arrangements now!"

Pingding City, which had just returned to normal, was once again martial law by the Japanese army, and the atmosphere in the city became more and more depressing. Japanese cavalry kept rushing out of the county to carry out tasks, or Japanese rushing into the county and heading straight to the garrison combat room.

"Report to the captain, we found the battlefield where the third squadron was severely damaged, which is the village they were going to attack today. The National Salvation Army not only transferred all the people, but also built a large number of street fighting fortifications in the village to kill and injure the troops of the third squadron." A chief Cao rushed into the war room to report.

Major Asakawa's loss at the hands of the National Salvation Army was not in vain. He judged the way of the National Salvation Army when he heard it, and then sighed with a calm face: "We have not been able to use the village to fight street battles with us. In addition, the third squadron has just been transferred from the front line and is not familiar with the way of the National Salvation Army. If we fight rashly, we will definitely suffer losses."

"It's just that I didn't expect that the National Salvation Army had such a big appetite, and it would take away one of our reinforcement squadrons in one battle."

Speaking of this, Major Asakawa couldn't help but sigh, his expression was very complicated: shock, heartache, and sadness...

But he soon returned to his serious expression as before, staring at the adjutant and asked anxiously: "Have you contacted other mobilization troops?"

The adjutant shook his head: "Captain Fangjing has just called back and they immediately withdrew to the county town. There is no news for the other two squadrons yet. I have sent scouts to search their sweeping area today. I will definitely find them, but the speed will be a little slower."

Major Asakawa couldn't help but smile on his face: "I hope they don't have any problems!"
