Chapter 518: Idle Things

"How do you know that the horse thief has the upper hand?" Zhang Chi asked with some curiosity. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Listen to the gunshots!" Zhang Qingqi replied.

Zhang Chi listened carefully to the gunshots and couldn't help nodding.

However, Staff Officer Liang was still a little puzzled and said, "The gunshots ...... There's nothing wrong with that! Can you hear that the horse thief has the upper hand? ”

"Staff Officer Liang!" Zhang Qingqi explained: "Horse thieves are on horses, and they are more inclined to use short equipment! ”

"Oh!" As soon as Zhang Qingji said this, Staff Officer Liang understood...... It is inconvenient to use long equipment on a horse, so the 38 big cover in the gunfire should be the one who was robbed, and the gunfire of the box cannon and Hanyang is more likely to be on the side of the horse thief.

And the box cannon and the gunfire made by Hanyang have obviously overwhelmed the 38 big cover, so it makes sense to speculate that the horse thieves have the upper hand.

"How?" Zhang Chi said on a whim: "Let's go and see if we guess right......

"Master!" Zhang Qingqi hurriedly replied: "The identities of these two armed forces are unknown, and it is unlikely that they are our army, and they are at night at this time...... Let's not care about this idle thing as well! ”

Of course, what Zhang Qingqi said is reasonable, in the expeditionary force, the militia that is equipped with the 38 major covers is the newly formed militia, and they are all trained in the area south of Shenyang, so it is impossible for them to appear here, so it is obvious that neither side is armed with the expeditionary force.

If it was daytime, it would be understandable that the expeditionary force would have beaten the horse thieves away for the Skywalker, but now it is night, and Zhang Chi's convoy is still the headquarters of the new 1st Division...... In case of a mistake in the dark of night, it would be a heavy loss for the new 1st Division and even the entire expeditionary force.

Therefore, the rational choice is to be like Zhang Qingqi said, regardless of this idle matter, and wait for them to finish the fight before passing.

But Zhang Chi shook his head and said: "Horse thieves generally have dealings with the Japanese, and they specialize in harming the people, and they don't leave any of them!" ”

"Hmm!" Staff Officer Liang also nodded: "On the one hand, it can also establish an image among the people of the puppet Manchu State, and on the other hand, it can also be neutral among the horse thieves!" ”

"Yes!" Zhang Qingqi answered, and immediately gave a few orders in a loud voice.

He had only suggested not interfering in this battle for the sake of Zhang Chi and the safety of the division commanders, but that did not mean that he was afraid of fighting...... In fact, there are more than 200 guards in his hand, all of whom are elite generals, plus they are equipped with more than 20 half-track armored vehicles and two "Stuart" tanks, even if they encounter regular Japanese troops, not to mention stragglers such as horse thieves.

But having said that, Zhang Qingqi was still very cautious in formulating a battle plan.

He knew from the map and his guide that there was a plain ahead...... The guide was actually a northeast soldier who was familiar with the terrain in the army, and Zhang Qingqi transferred a few from the 53rd Army in order to better march and fight.

Then Zhang Qingji ordered five armored vehicles on the left and right flanks to covertly outflank the ...... The so-called covert outflanking is to sneak slowly without turning on the headlights, so that it is not exposed at least because the engine is too loud.

The main force covered Zhang Chi and the command to approach the enemy from the front...... This is mainly to ensure the safety of Zhang Chi and the headquarters, more than a dozen armored vehicles and two "Stuart" are all placed in the front, and the horse thieves have great ability, but they are afraid that they will not pose any threat to the headquarters.

Then, as the gunshots got closer and closer, each unit also reported that it was in place, and Zhang Chi gave an order: "Turn on the lights!" ”

With a "Teng", the lights of all armored vehicles and tanks were lit up at the same time, especially one or two searchlights in all directions, which instantly illuminated the two teams of dozens of people who were killing in the dark in the middle.

At this time, Zhang Chi saw clearly, and sure enough, as Zhang Qingji said, it was a robbery of a horse thief...... Dozens of horse thieves riding horses with box cannons and made in Hanyang were roaming around five carriages. The five carriages in the middle were obviously the objects of the robbery, but their strength should not be underestimated, they surrounded the five carriages in a circle and relied on the cover of the carriage to resist desperately, which made the horse thieves have the upper hand but they were helpless for a while, which can be seen from the few corpses outside the carriage.

At this time, as soon as the caravan appeared and turned on the lights instantly, the two sides of the battle were taken aback, and some of the horse thieves habitually turned their guns in the direction of the lights......

But how could the warriors allow them to play tricks, and with a few "bangs" a few shots, they knocked the horse thieves to the ground...... Under the light, that's the state where I can see the enemy but the enemy can't see me, and it only takes a few minutes to defeat a few enemies.

"We are the Chinese Expeditionary Force!" Zhang Qingqi shouted at the gang with a loudspeaker: "Everyone put down their guns, otherwise they will be killed!" ”

Of course, the expeditionary force has this energy, you must know that they have dozens of half-track armored vehicles in their hands, each with 12.7 mm machine guns, mortars, howitzers, and two "Stuart" tanks are temporarily stopped behind because they are worried that the motor is too loud, and then they "rumble" to catch up with full power.

With such equipment and firepower, it only takes a few seconds to easily sieve.

But here's the problem......

Under the illumination of the lights, the horse thieves could not see this, and if they could not see, they could not threaten them, so the horse thieves whistled, and the horse thieves turned their horses and fled towards the north without lights...... This is the consistent practice of horse thieves, if you can beat it, you can fight, and if you can't beat it, you can escape with the horse under your crotch, because a large area in the northeast is very suitable for horses to run, so many times there is really no way to take them.

This time, however, they were wrong, and a big mistake.

Before the horse thieves could run a few steps, they heard Zhang Chi's order: "Fight!" ”

Suddenly, the bullets poured down towards the fleeing horse thieves, and from time to time a few shells exploded in the crowd of horse thieves, and the screams of bullets and shells everywhere, the neighing of horses, and the sound of bullets entering the flesh were intertwined in an instant, and in just a few seconds, the more than 50 horse thieves were knocked to the ground with men and horses.

After a while, the gunfire stopped, and in the light of the searchlights, the horse thieves, who had been invincible just a moment ago, had now become a mass of stumps and severed arms, leaving only a few who were not yet dead on the ground and wailing and begging for mercy, and occasionally a few wounded horses neighed in pain and struggled to get up, but soon fell to the ground foaming at the mouth, only the breath came out and there was no breath in.

The part of the people who stood in the carriage were stunned by the sight, they were also veterans of playing with guns, but they had never seen such terrible firepower since they came out of their mother's womb.
