The cavalry regiment of the tax police regiment marched forward in a panic all the way, and did not reach Longjiagou until after noon.

What they encountered this time was no longer false, when the cavalry squad that served as the spearhead rode into Longjiagou on a war horse, a wave of guns came over. In a few seconds, thirteen of the fourteen soldiers of this squad died at once, leaving only one with a shot in the shoulder, but fortunately the guy rode well, and did not fall to the ground, but turned and fled on his horse.

When the horse had run a few hundred meters, the soldier dared to look back, and he was even more frightened, for his thirteen companions were all dead, but their horses were not hurt in the slightest, and they were all circling around their master.

What does this mean? It can only show that the opponent's marksmanship is accurate, and a bullet will collect a life, which is not what a sharpshooter is. At the same time, he also understood that the reason why he didn't die was not because of his fate, and it wasn't because people didn't hit him, but because the other party wanted to go back and report the news by himself, and go back to tell the troops behind: There are people in ambush in front!

Otherwise, why didn't anyone shoot him again when he was running away?

He didn't understand why the communists in front of him did this, according to his thoughts, there was no need for the communists to be so open-minded, they could find a place to lurk, and then give the cavalry brigade behind them a head-on attack, so that the results would be greater, and their own side would suffer small losses.

Since he couldn't figure it out, he didn't want to, but gritted his teeth and drove the war horse to run quickly to the east.

Of course, the thirteen war horses were soon taken away by the Red Army soldiers and carefully sent to the county seat of Fengdu.

Soon after the spearhead of the cavalry regiment was wiped out, the Sichuan troops who were walking the ridge also encountered a blow from the Red Army.

Because these Sichuan troops did not ride horses, there was nothing good to capture, and it was not the snipers of the Red Army who dealt with them, but machine gunners and riflemen, and they were greeted by a rain of bullets and grenades. They also suffered heavy casualties, but none of them ran back here, but immediately shouted to surrender, and none of the soldiers escaped.

After receiving the report of the wounded soldier, the cavalry commander Zhao Junmai was also puzzled, and at first thought that the guy was frightened and said nonsense, but after several inquiries, the guy still said this, and he began to think about why the communists and bandits did this. However, after thinking about it for a long time, I didn't understand whether the communists and bandits were too stupid or too arrogant, and they actually took this way to engage the enemy, so why did they put on a confrontational posture? Could it be that they have not learned the lessons of Jiangxi, and they still have to fight positional warfare? How many of you can fight a positional battle with our tax police corps? We really want to fight a positional war with you, what we are most afraid of is that you will fight a guerrilla war, hide all of a sudden, and suddenly appear, which will make people unguardable.

While using a telegram to report the situation here to Huang Jie, the commander-in-chief of the regiment behind, he sent a cavalry battalion to test the attack.

I have to say that Zhao Junmai is stupid, everyone has already let one person go to report the news, which means that the other party has already prepared, you send a battalion to charge, isn't it to death? No, a cavalry battalion rushed forward with a shout, but the momentum was there, all the way murderous, but not long after the place where the thirteen cavalry died just now, there were dozens of heavy machine guns in front of them at the same time, and before these charging cavalry came to their senses, and before the battalion commander who took the lead in the charge shouted the word "bad", the team in front fell in unison, and nearly a hundred cavalry and their horses were swept to pieces by an unknown number of heavy machine guns, Swept into a bloody mess.

The others who did not die were frightened stupid, and hurriedly rolled the saddle and dismounted, and lay on the ground one by one, even if they were stepped on by the horse's hooves behind, they could only endure it.

When the mortars and grenades came, they were even more desperate, knowing that they would not be able to escape today no matter what, so they had to lie on the ground and shout surrender, surrender......

It's not that they're cowardly, it's just that the bullets of the heavy machine guns are too dense, the mortar bombardment is too fierce, and the grenades hit too much, and if they hesitate a little, they will be turned into rotten meat, and they can't shout surrender.

A cavalry battalion did not hold out for two minutes before losing half of its men and the rest of its men and horses and surrendering.

Zhao Junmai in the back was dumbfounded: "His grandmother's, are they such a loser in the war?" Just a cavalry battalion dragged out thirty heavy machine guns, so generous, in the end they are the tax police regiment or we are the tax police regiment, and the bullets of the heavy machine guns really don't cost money? ”

I also have to say that Zhao Junmai is smart, if he commanded the whole regiment to charge at the same time, then now he probably will not or will not have the opportunity to scold the communists and bandits in the back, and he will definitely end up like those officers and soldiers who are either dead or captured.

You must know that the cavalry is most afraid of heavy machine guns and shells, if the opponent is only a broadsword and spear, just a semi-automatic rifle, the cavalry is invincible when charging, and the enemy does not even have a chance to escape. However, if the opponent has more heavy machine guns, then the cavalry can only become the target of the opponent, not only will they not have the strength to fight back, but they will not even have a chance to escape.

It was precisely because he only sent a battalion to test the attack that Zhao Junmai tried the opponent's firepower, and he no longer dared to send troops to die, so he immediately evacuated and disengaged, and at the same time reported the losses here to the commander-in-chief Huang Jie.

Huang Jie was carefully studying the map of Longjiagou when he received the first telegram from the enemy, and after Zhao Junmai's second telegram came, he personally arranged for the telegraph operator to ask Zhao Junmai a few questions, and after Zhao Junmai's call back, he said to He Shaozhou, the commander of the first detachment, in confusion: "The communist bandits are going to face to face with us." ”

He Shaozhou was also puzzled and said, "Chief Regiment, why did the Communists and bandits do this? Could it be that they chose Longjiagou just to let the two sides fight a human battle? Do they have such strength? And from the information we have obtained, they also arrived at Longjiagou after noon today, which means that they did not have time to build too many strong fortifications there. ””

Huang Jie said: "Yes, it's strange. When they were in Jiangxi, didn't they lose because of positional warfare and finally escaped, but why do they still do it today? Why fight with our tax police corps? I am not afraid that we will destroy them all. ”

He Shaozhou said: "But Regiment Commander Zhao Junmai has detected that the communists and bandits have many heavy machine guns, could it be that they have better weapons than me?" ”

Huang Jie nodded and said, "I know!" This force certainly has much more weapons than other units. However, if everyone has already put on a posture with us to fight, should we fight or not? ”

He Shao was stunned on Monday, and hurriedly said: "Fight!" Of course hit! This is our most promising success, if we can't even win this kind of play, then our tax police corps will have to be disbanded. ......, but, Commander, is this a trick played by the Communists? ”

Huang Jie asked, "What tricks?" What other tricks do you think they have? ”

He Shaozhou shook his head and said: "I don't know what tricks they have, but I don't think they should be so stupid, the soldiers in the world know that they should use their strengths to avoid weaknesses in wars, and they should attack the enemy's weaknesses with their own strengths. ”

Huang Jie said with a smile: "Just now you said that you wanted me to pay attention to the fact that the weapons and equipment of the communists and bandits may exceed our estimates, and now you have a preconceived idea that we have more weapons than them, so do you say that they have more weapons or less?" ”

He Shaozhou smiled awkwardly and said, "I think they definitely have much more weapons and equipment than other troops, but it is absolutely impossible to say that they surpass us." We have the full support of Boss Song behind us, and it can be said that it was a unit built with the strength of half a country, and the weapons and ammunition were all purchased from Germany, France, Britain, and the United States. Not to mention that the communists and bandits have no money, even if they have money, they can't buy it, and if they buy it, they can't transport it in, at most they will grab a little bit from the Gui army, the Guizhou army, and the Hunan army, exchange a little, and secretly make a little. Because the troops led by Guo Bandit Humble Cheng defeated the Gui Army, the Hunan Army, and the Central Army, they must have abundant weapons and ammunition, but compared with us, they must be a little bit behind. ”

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, and then said: "I suspect that they have other tricks, because I think the communists and bandits are cunning, will they do this with Guo Shucheng's army to drag us here, while the other troops attack from all sides, occupy Chongqing-Qing, and then go to occupy Chengdu-Du, Zhande-Yang, when the time comes, we do not recover a city, but watch them occupy one strategic point after another." We can't afford to wait for the old man to scold. ”

Huang Jie said: "No! Your worries are unnecessary. But at this time, not to mention us, even Jiang himself changed his mentality and began to become a little more pragmatic. Didn't you find out? Before, Chiang sent a telegram almost a day, urging us to march quickly, ordering us to immediately recover Chongqing, but now he did not urge us to do so, and there was no deadline for us to take Chongqing, but only asked us to teach the Communists a good lesson. As long as we can really inflict heavy losses on Guo Zhuocheng's troops, Jiang will still be very happy. ”

He Shaozhou nodded and said, "Yes, I wonder why the old man has suddenly become better at talking these days." Did he have a problem? ”

Huang Jie sneered and said, "When did he not encounter a problem?" It's just that he is in a big problem now, and those warlords are not very obedient when they see his power weakened. I heard that some consortia in Zhejiang, Jiangsu, and Shanghai are secretly discussing whether to invite him away and let another capable person sit in his position. ……”
