328. The attack on its foothold is not stable

A series of violent explosions were heard behind him, and Bai Shujie's six war horses had already crossed the Shaliu River and headed north into the mountains. He is now rotating five Oriental horses, and even if he dies, he will not feel distressed. Let the dark clouds follow behind, in order to recover his strength so that he can fight again.

At half past five in the morning, the east had begun to turn white, the ground was hazy, and he could barely see the terrain clearly, Bai Shujie finally arrived at the first rendezvous site "Tiger Ridge". Xiao Lamei was walking back and forth between the two machine guns on duty, looking uneasy.

Seeing that Xiao Lamei was already alert and in danger of giving the order to shoot at any time, Bai Shujie hurriedly shouted: "Lamei, don't be nervous, I'm back!" ”

"Oops, I'm really in a hurry!" Xiao Lamei had already arrived in front of Bai Shujie's horse in a flash, and supported Bai Shujie with both hands to dismount: "What are you doing alone, the soldiers have been back for a long time." ”

"It's nothing, I slipped around with the little devil's cavalry." Bai Shujie waved his hand, and then asked in a low voice, "Have you all rested, how is the situation?" ”

"It's nothing, everybody is calm." Xiao Lamei also said in a low voice: "This time is very strange, not a single one was injured, and a total of 113 people were sacrificed, including five of the chief and deputy platoon commanders." Deputy company commander Yan Chongde also sacrificed in order to protect Wang Xinlan and the radio station! ”

"This blood debt must be firmly remembered, and let the little devil pay it back immediately!" Although Bai Shujie's heart hurts, he can only grit his teeth now: "Being bombarded by artillery, or directly sacrificed, the possibility of injury is very small." Where are they all, let Zhong Guitang come and see me immediately! ”

Seeing Zhong Guitang coming over with red eyes, Bai Shujie said in a deep voice: "Time is pressing now, and we are not out of danger yet. No need to talk nonsense, just report the current specific situation! ”

"The battle lost 113 combat troops and 117 horses; Nine machine guns and one mortar were blown up, and three grenadiers were lost. Zhong Guitang said in a low voice: "5 machine guns with crooked handles, 11 grenadiers and related ammunition were captured in the battle. At present, the fighters are emotionally stable, and hatred is held in their hearts. ”

Bai Shujie nodded, and then said: "Brothers, the heroic spirit is not far away, Lao Tzu will avenge them now!" I brought back five war horses, which should be enough. If it's not enough, just use a pack horse to deal with it for the time being, and it will be more enough to solve it soon! Immediately notify everyone to check the equipment, and attack on time at six o'clock. ”

At 5:50, 472 people were already fully armed and gathered in front of Bai Shujie. Although no one spoke, everyone's face was full of grief and indignation.

"Brothers, we had a big defeat last night! Because I miscommanded, I let more than a hundred brothers die! Bai Shujie looked at all the fighters before he continued: "However, there is no need for us to be discouraged. I'll take you to avenge your brothers now, and let the little devils pay for their blood debts! ”

"This time we went out at the same time, the first company behind the palace, the second company and the guard company with me in the lead; All the cooking squads and baggage squads are the Chinese army, commanded by Xiao Lamei, and their main task is to snatch the little devil's war horses and supplies. Keep a hundred meters between the three groups, and today we will rush out during the day and hit the little devil by surprise! ”

Under the cover of the woods, Bai Shujie led two companies of more than 36 people down the mountain, and went around about three miles behind Xuejiatun, and he had already seen hundreds of war horses circled together from the telescope. The village was already full of smoke and people.

No need to ask, the cavalry of the little devil did not rest in the town for the convenience of supply, but came to the tunzi north of the Shaliu River.

"Xiao Lamei is ready to grab the war horse, the troops behind the palace will serve as battlefield guards, and the vanguard will attack with me!"

Bai Shujie took out his machine gun and ran out first, trotting all the way on the country road, and soon approached within 500 meters of Xuejiatun, and the two machine guns on duty on the east and west sides of Tunzi could already be seen clearly.

I don't know why, the machine gun team of three people is usually only one person now. Bai Shujie looked carefully with a telescope for a long time and found that the two machine guns did not pay attention to the north, but focused all their attention on the horses!

This opportunity is really rare, Bai Shujie raised his left hand: "Two mortars are ready, knock out the machine guns of the little devils, and drive the big army of the little devils out of the tunzi!" All the machine guns are ready, divided into three arrows, and as soon as the imps rush out, immediately launch a surprise attack! Fire! ”

Open! Open!

Mortars hit the enemy within five hundred meters, it is not very difficult. The two mortars were not adjusted at all, they were directly three rapid fires, and the whole process took less than fifteen seconds!

An earth-shattering explosion suddenly sounded early in the morning, and Xue Jiatun was immediately shaken. The common people naturally found a place to hide, but the little devils couldn't, because the war horses were all on the edge of the tunzi. If there were no war horses, the cavalry warriors of the empire would be nothing!

The little devil rushed out of the tunzi in a panic, and what greeted them was Bai Shujie's three sharp knives, holding the head, pinching the tail, and hitting the waist at the same time! A total of 72 machine guns were divided into three assault groups and killed, which immediately separated the little devil from the war horse. When the little devil wants to return to Tunzi and resist stubbornly, he can't do it anymore.

All the fighters of the advance battalion were on fire last night. Now that the sky is bright, the little devils have collapsed again, and the absolute superiority of the cavalry against the infantry is fully displayed on this flat land!

The more than 700 little devil cavalrymen who had no war horses could not turn around to meet the enemy by relying only on the horse pistols in their hands and a pitiful few crooked machine guns. I had to desperately break through in the direction of Yutian County, strive to join the infantry brigade, and then think about it.

Bai Shujie gave an order, and the guard company and the second company immediately pursued the enemy for five kilometers in a squad unit, and then plunged directly into the Shaliu River and occupied it, opening a passage for the troops to move south.

The little devil is really defenseless! Especially when the pursuit has just been completed, the sweat beads on the back of the war horse have not yet dried, so the little devil never dreamed that there would be such a powerful force to attack suddenly.

Because the infantry brigade of the little devils, after the cavalry pursued the enemy, carefully inspected the entire battlefield and dug up the remains of the soldiers who were temporarily buried by Zhong Guitang and them. 113 people were killed, along with broken parts of machine guns and mortars.

According to the information provided by the Kwantung Army Commander's Command, the total number of "revenge squads" should be between 150 and 240 people. After this battle, the revenge team has basically been "wiped out", so I only saw one "slippery element" before, and there should be no threat!

When Umezu Mijiro received the news from the Yoshida Brigade, he was immediately overjoyed: this battle had killed at least half of the "revenge team", and it was definitely a brilliant result. The garrison army was finally able to raise their eyebrows and avenge the revenge of the Xifengkou Fortress!

A unit has lost more than half of its strength, and it is impossible to regain its combat effectiveness without three or five months. Because of this, the current small devil army is mainly on alert, preparing to start the encirclement and suppression of the northern mountains after dawn, completely annihilating the "revenge team", erasing this number from sight, and making the nightmare of the empire completely disappear!

Xiao Lamei and Wang Xinlan led three cooking classes and a baggage class to belong to the busiest people, and the little devil ran away, but there were too many things left. Fortunately, there are now more than 700 war horses, and no matter what is in the wooden boxes and hemp bags, everything that can be taken away will be taken away.

In this way, nearly a thousand war horses rushed straight to the Shaliu River like a torrent. A squad of the little devil Yoshida Brigade served as a guard here, and after being attacked by the guard company and the second company and four ways, it suddenly collapsed, and as soon as it rushed out of the town, it was drowned in more than seven hundred war horses.

The horses are so powerful after they are in a herd, although there is not a single rider, but the huge impact of the horses is enough to destroy everything!

The troops behind Zhong Guitang's palace followed and found that more than thirty little devils had all turned into meat puree. All the rifles had been trampled off, and the only two machine guns were trampled by the horses, which were useless at all.

On the main road on the east side of the Shaliu River, Bai Shujie stood on horseback and acted as a temporary traffic policeman: "You don't have to stop, follow yesterday's road map and move forward at full speed!" Adjust the queue in time during the march, and all the men are on two horses. After Yangjiatao directly inserted into the southwest, today must be inserted from between Tianjin and Langfang! ”

In broad daylight, the torrent of more than a thousand war horses swaggered through the market. By the time Umezu Mijiro got the news, Bai Shujie and the others had arrived at Zhouliangzhuang, fifty kilometers southwest of Yutian County, less than a hundred miles away from the north gate of Tianjin! In particular, the news from the front said: "Rushing to Tianjin is a powerful cavalry force of more than 1,000 people!" ”

Umezu Mijiro was not trivial, and hurriedly made a phone call and sent a telegram: "Order: The garrison garrison immediately blocked the gate of Tianjin, the heavy artillery wing assisted in the defense, and the gendarmerie immediately suppressed the whole city." No one will be allowed to attack without my own orders! ”

Just kidding, the main forces of the garrison army have all been pulled out. If it is rushed into the city by two brigades of cavalry, for the empire, the whole Tianjin will not be Tianjin, it will definitely be hell on earth!

Last time, there was an evil ** incident of "bloodbathing Tianjin City", so Umezu Mijiro was able to take over the position of commander of the garrison army! It's only been three months, and now the ass hasn't been hot in the commander's position, and Umezu Mijiro will definitely not allow it to come again!

Bai Shujie didn't know about the little devil's arrangement and countermeasures. But this time, he learned his lesson, and ordered the second company to go out in advance, and broke away from the large army and advanced at a rapid pace. One of the platoons went straight to Dazhangzhuang in the north of Tianjin, the other platoon immediately rushed to the port of Xianggu in the northwest of Tianjin, and the remaining platoon immediately attacked southwest and occupied the "East Horse Circle" 18 kilometers east of Langfang!

Bai Shujie's series of actions were quickly reported to Umezu Mijiro's desk: "The three squadrons of the Zhina cavalry raided the first line of Dazhangzhuang at the north gate of Tianjin, the first line of Xigu Port at the west gate and the first line of the East Horse Circle at the east gate of Langfang, and the main force is accelerating and approaching, and the direction of the main attack is currently unknown!" ”

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
