All 60 members of the first cavalry company were buried in an open space halfway up Qinglong Mountain.

There, facing north, you can see not only the province of Rehe, for which they fought and died, but also their hometown. The cavalry brigade hopes that the brothers can watch themselves kill the little devils for them here.

The number of the first cavalry company was also ordered by Deng Wen to be removed first, not to revoke the number, but Deng Wen swore in front of the tomb of the first company that the 3rd Cavalry Wing of the Japanese invaders would be eliminated that day, and the cavalry brigade would rebuild the first cavalry company on that day.

And the reason for the joint burial was that the second cargo man personally asked Deng Wen, and the details of the battle he described made many commanders of the cavalry brigade burst into tears.

Charge, charge, charge. From 60 to 30, then from 30 to 3, and finally, all of them were killed. Of the 60 people in the first company of the cavalry, none of them were misgiving, and all of them died in the charge against the Japanese.

After they died, they should be shoulder to shoulder, head to head, as if they had relied on each other to launch a moth-like charge against the huge cavalry of the Japanese invaders, leaning on each other and watching each other.

Deng Wen agreed to the request of the second man, and dug the tomb with him, and the two men who blamed themselves deeply took a full day to dig the tomb that could accommodate the bodies of 60 people.

The bluestone tombstone is engraved with a line of big characters on the tomb of all the heroes and martyrs of the first company of the Qinglongshan Volunteer Army Cavalry, and the names of everyone below the company commander are also engraved behind the tombstone: Zhou Laoda, Ma Laoqi, Wang Dahai。。。。。。

And the second cargo man is very stubborn to engrave his name Diao Ye at the end. In his words, although he was not a cavalryman of the first cavalry company, they were also his comrades who lived and died together, and as the only survivor of this battle, no matter where he died in battle, this tomb was his final destination. This is Qinglong Mountain, born here and buried here, it is also his lifelong wish.

Everyone present probably won't know that this tomb of the volunteers, named "Charge Tomb" by the northerners decades later, has become the most important tourist attraction of Qinglong Mountain's red patriotic tourism. All who come here will hear an old voice gasping for a recording of the origin of the "Stormtrooping Tomb" and the story of the battle they fought in the icy snowstorm of northern China decades ago.

The old man, who had recorded the never-ending charge to death that he had personally experienced, died ten days after recording the audio that took him two days to complete, and was buried in this tomb.

On that day, the soldiers who wore gold star epaulettes in front of this tomb and saluted solemnly were by no means less than the number of Chinese soldiers buried in this "charging tomb".

In this era, it is really unlucky to engrave the name on the tombstone when the person is alive, it can be seen that the attitude of the second man is extremely resolute, and Deng Wen can only agree.

Once Shui could only sigh silently, he knew his boss's temperament too well, although in the end he almost wiped out the ambushed Japanese army, but the self-blame in the heart of the eagle master never faded a little, and even had the will to die. If it weren't for the sudden appearance of his rescuer, for fear that he and the Japanese would desperately affect his brothers, he would probably not choose to run away and would have fought with the Japanese until death.

But once the water couldn't help him, he could help him escape from the Japanese invaders, but he couldn't help him break the shackles he had set in his heart.

Fortunately, they have a group seat named Liu Lang.

On the night when the cavalry battalion returned to Qinglong Mountain with the remains of his comrades who died in battle, Liu Lang also learned from the telegram about the major defeat of the Qinglong Mountain Volunteer Army.

This defeat is not about how many people were sacrificed, nor is it about being ambushed due to being caught on the inner line, but that the Qinglongshan Volunteers should adjust their combat methods.

From a general strategic point of view, the strategic intention of the Deng Wen Cavalry Brigade was actually not wrong, relying on the intelligence of the inner line of the Japanese stronghold in the city, using Qinglong Mountain as a base to launch an attack with the super mobility of the cavalry, striking the Japanese supply line and killing the Japanese army.

Even the cavalry had no problem in the tactics of specific battles, and in the face of the sudden appearance of superior forces of the Japanese army, they chose to retreat, if it were not for the Japanese army using the lives of the Chinese people as bait, they would not have chosen to face death calmly like moths to fire. They used their lives to explain what it means to be a soldier, to be called a Chinese soldier.

However, the mistakes they made were that they relied too much on the intelligence in the Japanese Castle, and once there was a problem in the most important link, they would become a fish, a fish lured by bait. If this is still the case, they may still fall for the devil in the future, and at that time they may lose not a cavalry company but a cavalry battalion or even bury an entire cavalry brigade.

In fact, even if it is a fight for consumption, the Qinglongshan Cavalry Brigade will not be able to fight the Japanese army.

The Japanese Kwantung Army was strong and lost a cavalry wing, and they would transfer another cavalry wing from the three northeastern provinces. But the Qinglong Mountain Cavalry Brigade is not good, there are so many thousands of people in total, and the loss of one is one less. Not only are there few young people recruited from nearby villages, but it is even more difficult to train a qualified cavalryman than an infantryman, and the training cycle is too long. If it continues at this rate, there is no need to wait for the outbreak of a full-scale war two and a half years later, and there are only two or three big cats and kittens left in the Qinglong Mountain Cavalry Brigade, and they can really only occupy the mountain as the king and become bandits, even if it is just bandits who rob the Japanese invaders.

An army without formation has lost the ability to deter enemy forces. At least now, as it is now, the Japanese convoys no longer dare to penetrate within a hundred miles of Qinglong Mountain, and would rather detour farther to the northern mountains and spend more manpower and material resources than easily approach the road to supply the Japanese troops in the towns and strongholds. That is the great deterrent power of more than a thousand heavily armed cavalry.

Second, changes should be made in the mode of warfare. Cavalry, not only need high mobility but also stronger firepower, not just bravery and sabers in hand.

In particular, there is also a deviation in the use of two special forces in the cavalry brigade, once Shui as a super sniper can be used to infiltrate the main officers of the Japanese strongholds for long-distance sniping and continue to hit their morale, and the second male eagle master is not only a scout, he can use the special skills he has learned to infiltrate the Japanese stronghold to spy on intelligence, assassination or create riots.

Although the special forces are not gods, the special operations capabilities they embody will not play a smaller role in this era when they still have little understanding of special operations than killing the enemy on the frontal battlefield.

Liu Lang drafted a long telegram to Deng Wen, making his own suggestions for this battle, and at the end he sent a sentence to the second male eagle who was deeply remorseful.

"The mark of a great warrior of a nation is his willingness to die heroically for the country and the nation, and the mark of a guardian of a nation is his willingness to live humbly for the country and the nation."

Whether they die in battle or live in battle, it depends on what they can leave behind for the country and the nation. The eyes of the second cargo man gradually lit up the moment he saw the teachings given to him by Liu Tuanzuo.

Of course, for the responsibility that the second cargo man should bear, Liu Lang will never be soft because of his heroic battle. A military order, the second cargo man won the second-class military merit, and the rank of second lieutenant who had been regularized was also canceled and became a private. Although Private Zeng Shui was effective in rescuing afterwards and killing dozens of Japanese soldiers and killing one Japanese cavalry junior with one shot, as the leader of the special forces duo, he also bore responsibility for command mistakes, and his military merits were recorded, but his military rank was not promoted, and he continued to be his junior soldier.

Regarding this military order from 3,000 miles away, the two soldiers were all convinced and did not have any objections. On the contrary, the two also have a sense of ease. Neither of them, but no one is willing to step on the blood of their comrades to receive military merits. The saying that one will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither does not apply to two small soldiers who have never thought of being generals.

However, Liu Lang not only expressed his deep condolences for the 89 cavalrymen who died in this battle, but also purchased 30 60-mm mortars and 1,000 shells from Comrade Lao Yan's arsenal, which was not far from Qinglong Mountain, as well as 30 imitation Czech-made light machine guns and 10 Makqin heavy machine guns, and entrusted the Chinese business group to transfer them to Qinglong Mountain.

Through this battle with the Japanese cavalry, Liu Lang deeply felt the lack of heavy weapons of the Deng Wen cavalry, if they carried enough mortars, machine guns and enough ammunition, they could take advantage of the favorable terrain on the way to retreat to a blocking battle, and use artillery and bullets to gradually consume the vitality of the pursuing enemy.

Just like the "kite flying" tactic used by the Mongolian light cavalry, you don't need to charge frantically to slash, just hang on the perimeter and shoot arrows, you can chase me and run, and shoot with long-range attack weapons. It was with this simple tactic that the terrible Mongol cavalry once hit the Danube in Europe in one go.

Of course, all this must be based on the fact that the Deng Wen cavalry brigade outperformed the Japanese cavalry in terms of firepower and the staying power of war horses.

Although the Mongolian horse is inferior to the Oriental horse equipped by the Japanese cavalry in terms of sprinting ability, the staying power is better than a lot, and the combat effectiveness of the cavalry is naturally not to mention, and it is an extremely elite cavalry that has been fighting for thousands of miles in the black land for several years, so Liu Lang will use more light weapons to equip the Deng Wen cavalry brigade.

Small-caliber mortars were used against the grenadiers of the Japanese army, and more heavy machine guns and light machine guns were used to fire at the Japanese Type 92 heavy machine guns and junk crooked machine guns.

Sure enough, the Deng Wen Cavalry Brigade, which was heavily equipped with machine guns and mortars, had the upper hand in more than a dozen battles with the Japanese cavalry wing in 35 and 36 years. In cavalry battles without heavy artillery support, the grenadiers carried by the Japanese cavalry were almost not beaten by the attack of larger caliber mortars.

And this terrible situation forced the command of the Kwantung Army to ask for help from the base camp and transfer a large number of mortars to equip its own cavalry wing, which improved slightly.

But at that time, the Deng Wen cavalry brigade with Liu Lang's support was no longer just mortars.
