Chapter 230: Farewell Telegraph

"Eight Tooth Road! No, being trapped in the valley is bound to be a dead end. Nakatani-kun, continue to supervise the battle, concentrate all your forces and assault south! Hurry up and drop! ”

Kotaro Taketo took out the samurai saber he was carrying, slashed at Taniguchi to the south, and roared.

On the hilltops on the left and right sides of the valley, the enemy infantry was condescending, and the fire was intensive. If you continue to stay in the valley, you can only be reduced to a condescending and dense attack from the firepower of the opponent's flanks.

It is better to concentrate all the devil cavalry to dismount as infantry and storm the valley mouth south of the valley.

Nakatani Yuya's expression was miserable, "Captain, we have been attacking the southern Taniguchi for a long time, but we have suffered heavy casualties. If you rush like this, you may not be able to break through even if you run out! ”

At the mouth of the valley south of the small valley, there were already a lot of Japanese corpses everywhere. The new regiment obviously had a plan to block Taniguchi tightly, and the infantry artillery fire behind Taniguchi was very fierce.

The Japanese cavalry dismounted and used as infantry to use the charge attack, which was simply wasteful and helpless.

"Nakatani-kun, look at the current situation! If we don't open up the enemy's blockade, we will only be completely annihilated. Hurry up and do the order! Kotaro Taketo watched as the new ambush fire on the woods and mountains on both sides of the valley intensified and fired intensively, and the Japanese cavalry in the valley who could not advance or retreat was used as a live target.

Although Kotaro Taketo commanded some of the cavalry to dismount and shoot from both flanks, the cavalry rushed north, and the cavalry itself did not carry many heavy weapons. Therefore, it was very difficult to suppress the condescending blows of the infantry of the new regiments, battalions and battalions on both sides of the valley.

Therefore, Kotaro Taketo had no choice but to take a gamble and concentrate most of the cavalry to dismount as infantry and use it to storm the southern Taniguchi. If the gap is opened, there is still a way out.

Otherwise, according to the current situation, there is only a dead end.

Sure enough, Nakatani Yuya smiled bitterly when he heard this.

"Hai, Wing Captain, do your bidding." Nakatani paused heavily, and then walked away, leading more than a dozen ghost soldiers of the war team to supervise the Japanese cavalry charge.

At this time, Zhang Dabiao and Ma Wenhai had already carried out intensive firepower from both sides of the valley from their respective command posts.

Due to the geographical advantage, the condescending firepower was intensively fired into the valley.

Bullets and shells rained down on the Japanese cavalry in the small valley, screaming and gunfire one after another.

"Boom, boom!!"

"!!Da Da

......

Constant artillery fire and a dense fire of all kinds of rifles and submachine guns covered the small valley.

Since the length of the small valley from north to south is only about one kilometer, and the width of the valley itself is not large, the more than 2,000 Japanese cavalry itself is a mixed and improvised Japanese cavalry unit. At this time, it was hit by an ambush of fire from both sides, and it was already a big mess.

Although Kotaro Taketo urgently ordered all units to retreat south according to the plan, the valley was pitch black, and the cavalry was scattered by dense firepower. After receiving the order of Kotaro Taketo, all the devil cavalry immediately retreated south.

This chaotic situation in the valley made Zhang Dabiao and Ma Wenhai both laugh, and the command post department hit hard.

"Brothers, kill, hit hard! This little devil is really stupid, hahaha! "Reading the book nest

Zhang Dabiao, the commander of the first battalion, stood on a hill on the left side of the small valley, condescendingly watching the violent explosion in the valley and the chickens and dogs jumping by the ambushed own firepower, and the panicked devil cavalry troops, and immediately laughed and ordered.

"Yes, Battalion Commander!"

A herald had already left in response to the order.

The same is true of Ma Wenhai, the commander of the third battalion, and the soldiers of the third battalion of the command post also carried out intensive firepower on the right side of the small valley.

The two divisions cooperated seamlessly, and the Japanese cavalry in the valley cried and cried for their mother, and the number of Japanese cavalry killed continued to increase.

Especially in the dark situation in the valley, the Japanese cavalry with torches was the guide of the new regiment of soldiers ambushed on both sides, and bullets and shells covered it.

The grenades were even more exerted by the new group of soldiers, and the overwhelming grenades smashed down into the valley, and the Japanese cavalry that blew up was even more chaotic.

Kotaro Taketo has already received a report from the devil cavalry behind the palace at this time, and he can't stop it for long.

Turning his gaze to Kotaro Taketo, the old devil's eyes looked even more gloomy under the dark night!

"Click!!

Hurried footsteps came from the south, and Yuya Nakatani hurried to Kotaro Taketo's hiding place again, "Report to the co-captain, the situation is not good!" The various units of the overseer desperately attacked the enemy army at the mouth of the valley to the south, but it was still impossible. The opponent's firepower is too dense, most of our cavalry are armed with carbines, although it is okay to dismount as infantry, but the rifle firepower of carbines is not good. It is difficult to break through the dense firepower network of the opposing side, Your Excellency the Wing Captain. ”

Kotaro Taketo picked up the binoculars, and in the sight of the binoculars, the Japanese cavalry in the night stepped on the small stones in the valley one by one, and attacked the valley mouth to the south. But under the dense fire of the new regiment, the corpses were already blocked at the mouth of the valley.

"Damn!"

Kotaro Taketo smashed his fist on the small stone on the side, and then gritted his teeth and said to Nakatani Yuya, "How many centaurs do we have now?" ”。

Hearing this, Nakatani smiled bitterly, looked around, and then said, "Captain, I'm afraid there are less than six or seven hundred people left!" ”。

"Nani? How can it be? Kotaro Taketo was taken aback and couldn't believe it.

Encountering an ambush in a small valley, the battle would not last at least ten minutes, and within ten minutes, the cavalry troops under his command had lost fourteen or five hundred men?

However, Kotaro Taketo looked around and found that the number of cavalry under his command had been seriously reduced, and there was no doubt about it.

"Eight Tooth Road! Your Excellency's information is incorrect! I'm afraid that the county seat of Linxi has been lost, and the other party actually knows the news that my 2,000 imperial army cavalry is heading north! For a moment, Kotaro Taketo, who thought of the possible aspect, said a little sadly.

But Adjutant Nakatani smiled bitterly and said in a low voice: "Captain, now let's take a look at our situation!" If we are unable to break through the new valley mouth blocking fortifications to the south, our troops will be completely annihilated within ten minutes. ”。

"This is the end of the matter, there is no other way! Nakatani-kun, send a farewell telegram to Your Excellency the General! Two minutes later, all the cavalry dismounted, concentrated all their firepower and followed me, and finally attacked the enemy fortifications of Taniguchi to the south. If you don't succeed, you will be a benevolent! Kotaro Taketo finally said in a Chinese sentence.

Seeing this, Nakatani Yuya could only pause heavily and said, "Hay, Your Excellency the Wing Captain." Subsequently, Nakatani Yuya ordered the Japanese communications corps accompanying the army to send the last farewell telegram to Matsui Ishine by radio.

Subsequently, all personnel such as the signal corps were ordered to gather around Kotaro Taketo and prepare for the final charge!
