Chapter 252: The Sound of Horses' Hoofs Breaking (2)

After receiving the order, the chief of staff of the cavalry brigade was in good spirits and led the troops of more than three cavalry companies to quietly move forward and gallop over to meet the cavalry of Wang Ying's bandits.

Looking at the bandits' sparse marching formation, dragging out more than ten miles, he frowned slightly, such a formation is inconvenient for the cavalry to outflank, and it is not conducive to giving full play to the firepower advantage of the troops, so we have to find a way to drive the bandits to a pile, otherwise, the battle starts, the bandits are scattered, and then pursue, like chasing sheep all over the grassland, it will take effort.

Tang Qiuli issued the second order, the independent division guard brigade, all dismounted, concealed the horses in the bushes behind, changed from cavalry to infantry, on the hills on the road of Wang Ying's bandits, using the terrain, urgently built blocking fortifications, the first wave of strikes target, is the Japanese squadron walking in front, specific requirements, use the sudden strike density of automatic firearms, in the shortest possible time, to give the Japanese army a lot of damage.

The 1st Regiment of the Cavalry Brigade of the 29th Army advanced to the large bushes to the left of the bandit marching army column and waited for cover.

The second regiment, after advancing to the right hill of the bandits' marching column, was on standby, and the third regiment, detouring behind the bandits, was on standby.

The remaining cavalry of the independent division is responsible for the frontal assault mission, and the specific requirements are that each detour unit must not expose the target, and after the frontal blocking battle begins, it will see three red signal flares and launch a continuous charge at the same time, so as not to give the bandit troops a chance to breathe.

All mortars equipped by the unit formed a temporary artillery squadron, and built an artillery position one kilometer behind the blocking position of the guard brigade, focusing on suppressing and destroying the Japanese artillery and light and heavy machine guns.

After Tang Qiuli gave the order, he picked up a submachine gun casually, and wanted to follow the guard brigade to block the forward position, this time, the cavalry brigade commander and the deputy captain of the guard brigade were frightened, my ancestor, are you going to that place?

Everyone knows that at the beginning of the battle, the frontal blocking position will inevitably withstand the attack of several thousand bandits, and in case of an accident to the commander of the army, the heads of the two of us will have to be moved.

Later, these two people were so anxious that they were about to cry, and they didn't let Tang Qiu leave the forward position, Tang Qiuli had no choice but to give up, and set up the headquarters here, overlooking the entire battlefield, the soldiers of the special guards, quickly dug a shelter, the observation hole was facing the grass below, and it was still on it, camouflaged, and from a distance, Tang Qiuli's headquarters was like a hillside overgrown with shrubs.

This is also one of the basic subjects of the soldiers of the Special Guards in peacetime training, and their task is to protect the personal safety of the division commander in peacetime, and build a bunker for the division commander as much as possible on the battlefield, so this guy, for them, is as easy as piling up toys.

A group of cavalry suddenly appeared in front of a large number of bandits, the number of people was about 300 people, less than two kilometers away from the bandits' cavalry, they seemed to have just discovered that there were a large number of arms, the formation appeared chaotic, the cavalry in front, turned the horse's head and ran back, the cavalry behind, did not know what was happening, two just hit the bull.

Wang Ying's sleepy eyes suddenly shone brightly, and in an instant, the fierce aura cultivated for many years for the bandits escaped, and when he came to his side, the Japanese squadron leader who was riding on a horse was startled, and his contempt for this bandit leader was restrained a lot.

The two of them immediately observed with binoculars, the military uniforms on the cavalry were the outfits of the 29th Army troops they were familiar with, Wang Ying immediately came to the spirit, he had fought with the troops of the 29th Army more than once, although they were defeated more than the victories, they still knew their combat effectiveness very well.

He coveted the three hundred or so war horses, this is a good thing, if it was in normal times, Wang Ying didn't have such a big courage, now it's different, there is a squadron by his side, the elite troops of the Imperial Japanese Army support themselves, and the number of his cavalry is almost twice that of the cavalry of the 29th Army, and he doesn't eat such a big piece of fat, it's a fool.

Besides, look at the bear-like appearance of those cavalry, at first glance, they are the garrison troops patrolling from Huailai City, not serious field cavalry, they can't even ride horses, let alone fight, if they take down these 300 or so war horses, even if they fight the baggage of independent divisions, they will not be able to reap any benefits, and they will make a lot of money.

After making up his mind, he ordered the cavalry captain who was eager to try and had blue light in his eyes, "Chase Lao Tzu hard, even if he hits Huailai City, he must bring back these 300 war horses for Lao Tzu, the soldiers of the 29th Army, Lao Tzu doesn't want any of them, solve them on the spot, go quickly"

Wang Ying will soon regret his stupid decision, and his bowels will be blue, because he lightly ruined his cavalry troops, but this is also the penultimate regret in his life, and the last regret is that he should not go against the independent division, and his life will soon not belong to him.

The captain of the bandit cavalry who got the order, led more than 400 bandits, chased down like a gust of wind, bursts of wild shouts, filled the sky over the grassland, for a while, it also looked murderous, extremely brave, the Japanese squadron leader, very satisfied with this momentum, he gave Wang Ying a thumbs up, and said in half-baked Chinese: 'Wang Sang, your warrior, great bravery, Yo Xi"

Wang Ying showed a proud expression on his face, he seemed quite useful, it was his greatest honor to be praised by the invincible officers of the Imperial Japanese Army in the world, the bandits' cavalry, mostly Mongols, almost all of them were scum among the Mongols, and they had long forgotten the simple and kind nature of the Mongols, and became ferocious and violent.

The riding skills of these bandits are quite exquisite, with a bright saber in their hands and a whistle in their mouths, they chase after the cavalry of the 29th Army to lure the enemy, and the sound of thunderous hooves shook the grassland, and the two teams of cavalry soon crossed a hillside and disappeared, and the sound of horses' hooves gradually disappeared, and finally no sound could be heard, and the grassland returned to calm.

In the concealment department, watching the movements of the cavalry of the 29th Army, Tang Qiuli almost laughed out loud, these soldiers really have a talent for acting, even he thinks that they are fleeing in a panic, afraid that Wang Ying will not be fooled?

Sure enough, the bandit cavalry chased down like a swarm, and without these mobile forces, the remaining bandits were much easier to deal with, plus the sudden attack, they were almost in the fate of being slaughtered.

The Japanese soldiers in the squadron in front of the bandits, in fact, had a dry mouth and fatigue for a long time, and from morning to now, they have been running for several hours without stopping, plus they did not rest well because of the evil they did last night, and they were all extremely tired.

What they wanted to hear most was the order to rest, although the military uniform on their backs had been soaked with stinky sweat, and the scorching sun was roasting their heads, the taste was similar to being tortured, and most of the Japanese soldiers were already in a semi-comatose state.

For the sake of the dignity of the Imperial Japanese Army, they still lined up in a neat formation, moved their feet numb mechanically, and walked forward in a groggy manner, without a trace of wind, and the plaster flag tied to the bayonet was like impotence, and they bowed their heads listlessly, at this time, the vigilance of the Japanese army was the lowest, and they no longer had extra energy to observe the abnormal situation in front.

Ahead was a hill slightly higher than the others, and over this hill one could see a large area of bushes, and there seemed to be a small river that curved, revealing an alluring bright white in the sun, which was undoubtedly a source of happiness for the Japanese soldiers who could smoke with thirst in their mouths, and they went to taste the sweet spring.

The Japanese soldiers quickened their pace, and the bandits behind them, opened a distance, and when they were about to approach the top of the hill, the flat ground, suddenly pieces of turf flew up, and a row of black holes of guns suddenly appeared in front of the Japanese soldiers.

And the distance between the muzzles of the guns was so close that the Japanese soldiers at the front could even see the cold roasted blue on the guns, and the Japanese soldiers in a state of shock had not yet woken up from this state.

A metallic storm suddenly blew on the flat ground, and the dense gunfire broke the silence of the midday steppe and startled the birds in the large flock of bushes.

The Japanese soldiers at the front were almost interrupted by the dense bullets, and in the last moment of their lives, what remained in their memories was the flames from the beating muzzle, the jumping shells, flying out of the body happily, and they could almost feel the sound of metal bullets hitting their bodies.

This is the most elite unit of the independent division, the individual soldiers of the division headquarters guard brigade, their Japanese soldiers were only 20 meters away from themselves, and then suddenly opened fire, thoroughly carrying out the order of the division commander, with sudden and ferocious firepower, to inflict maximum damage on the Japanese soldiers.

At a distance of twenty meters, timid people, they tremble when they think about it, the enemy can rush in front of them in a few seconds, the soldiers of the guard brigade, there is not even a trace of sweat, these battle-hardened veterans, the lowest rank is also a second lieutenant, in the northeast, and the devil has been fighting to the death for several years, and they have long exercised their extraordinary courage and combat skills.

The soldiers can already hear the leather shoes of the devils, the sound of stepping on the grass, and have clearly seen the ugly faces of the devils.

The sudden blow and the dense firepower at close range played a miraculous effect, bringing the lethality of the submachine gun at close range to the extreme, more than 160 devils, more than 100 people, lying on a foreign land forever, and the lucky ones among them were hit by multiple bullets at the same time, and died almost painlessly.

Tang Qiuli, who was observing the battlefield in the concealment department, was also taken aback, he didn't expect that the deputy captain of the guard brigade would put the devil at such a close distance, usually speaking, thirty meters is already the final limit, it must be the perverted guy of the mountain tiger, he usually trains his soldiers like this, others don't have such great courage,

What kind of generals are really, what kind of soldiers do you bring, the mountain tiger has trained the soldiers of the guard brigade to be the master who is not afraid of the sky and the earth, it is too risky, go back, you must order the mountain tiger to change this training method, if you are not careful, the bayonet of the little devil can stab the soldiers in the chest.
