Chapter 112: Cavalry Battalion! offensive
Behind Shou County, between a gentle slope and flat land.
Driving···
Kuroshima Daisa waved his whip and pulled the reins with one hand, chasing the cavalry of the Independent Regiment in front, at this time, the imperial family of the Great Japanese Empire looked hideous and excited, and shouted in his mouth while chasing:
"Destroy the group in front of you and kill them all."
It could be seen that the commander of the cavalry wing, who had been guarding the artillery behind for nearly a month, was suffocated, and at this time he was desperately screaming, like a wild dog that had fallen into madness, and had completely forgotten his orders.
It's just that after chasing for a while, Kuroshima suddenly realized that something was wrong with the situation.
The distance between the two sides has not decreased, and even, some have been pulled apart.
The military horses ridden by the Eighth Route Army in front of him were all captured emperor horses, and he could see it at a glance. Although the horses are of the same type, it stands to reason that his horses should have better endurance and faster speed.
Raising horses, especially military horses, to maintain their physical strength and endurance is not a simple matter. Not only animal husbandry technology is needed, but also adequate feed security.
As far as he knows, the recent disaster and famine in the base area of the Eighth Route Army, there is not enough food for people to eat, and there is still enough food to feed the horses?
As for the animal husbandry technology for feeding military horses, not to mention, the technology that the empire has summarized and researched for decades can not be compared to the Eighth Route Army that came out of that group of mud-legged peasants.
But why...
Looking at the cavalry units of the Eighth Route Army in the distance that gradually widened the distance, Kuroshima Dazuo fell into a stupor for a while.
The same weight, the same marching posture, the same terrain, but the cavalry in front of him is running away from him, which shows that the opponent's military horse is faster than him and has good endurance.
But they are all military horses bred by the Imperial Horse Farm, why?
Why?
······
"Haha, the little devil can't catch up."
Looking at the devil cavalry behind who was gradually lagging behind, a company commander in the cavalry battalion laughed, and his tone was extremely proud.
The soldiers of the cavalry battalion on the side couldn't help but roll their eyes in their hearts, if this thing was not a comrade-in-arms, this tone, they would all want to beat people when they heard it.
"Hey, hey..."
Sun Desheng in the center of the team also glanced back at the devil cavalry who was gradually lagging behind, and smiled, and the smug tone in his voice couldn't be hidden, but the people around him didn't hear it.
With the same breed of military horses, why did the devil cavalry lag behind, because of the secrecy requirements, the soldiers did not know, but he knew the reason.
The military horse is a delicate thing, although it is fast and has good endurance, but it is really troublesome to raise, not only is it more troublesome to eat than a person, but it also has to take care of its temper and serve it to eat, drink and lazar.
can be called a father.
If it was before, the military horses of the independent regiment would not be able to outrun the devils, even if the military horses of the same breed, even if the independent regiment did not lack hard fodder at all, and even had the spare strength to give the horses hard fodder such as corn, it would be difficult to run, but the gap was not big.
The devil's technique of raising military horses is indeed not comparable to that of an independent regiment, which he has to admit.
Decades of experience are there.
But since Boss Chen gave the information on the cultivation of the big mules, the situation has become different, Huang Baowang has improved the feed ratio for the military horses through those techniques, and improved the breeding technology.
Since then, the horses in the camp have been getting better day by day, even visibly better, their tempers have improved, they are easier to drive, they are more energetic to run, and the horses are getting sick less and less.
"It's almost there, get ready."
Sun Desheng suddenly screamed.
What appeared in front of them was a large flat meadow, flat and open, and the ground was hard, which was extremely suitable for horses to run, and was the most suitable place for cavalry to play.
The warriors' faces were serious and solemn, and they all tightened the reins in their hands, reducing the speed of the horses, giving the horses a little rest and recovering their strength. At the same time, he opened the submachine gun safety hanging on his chest.
······
"Kill to give..."
Kuroshima Daisa also saw the flat land in the distance and was overjoyed.
After such a long pursuit, he also figured out the situation, the opposing force was about 300 men and horses, and he had more than 650 men and horses, and he had an absolute advantage in his forces.
As long as the distance is closed, whether it is mounted archery or assault saber slashing, he believes that it is definitely his cavalry wing that wins.
Under his order, the devils waved their whips one after another, and the stimulated military horses accelerated and erupted, and suddenly, the distance between the two sides was visibly narrowed.
Suddenly...
Hiss...
Like the sound of a ripping machine, it came from the flank, followed by a series of devil cavalrymen on their backs, like wheat cut down by a sickle, falling in pieces.
"Yaga..."
Kuroshima followed the voice and looked over, and his eyes suddenly split.
Not far away, there were more than a dozen motorcycles parked on the side, each with a machine gun mounted on the side fight, firing frantically at the cavalry wing, because of the cover of a small hill, he did not find this group.
And because it was located on the flank of the cavalry battalion, it perfectly used its side-firing firepower, and his cavalry wing fell in pieces.
"Spread out, machine guns dismount and suppress."
Kuroshima Osa immediately gave the order.
Although his cavalry unit was fast in impact, although there were only a dozen motorcycles and a dozen machine guns over there, although it was only five hundred meters away.
But he didn't dare to give the order to rush over directly, but he could see very clearly that there were five machine guns in the distance, and the rate of fire was obviously different from other machine guns, and the sound was different, and the rate of fire was terrifying.
With this firepower, even if all of his hundreds of people rushed over, even if it only took less than a minute to reach 500 meters, I am afraid that in this minute, a cavalry squadron could fall on the way.
With the order of Kuroshima Daisa, the devil cavalry spread instantly, some dismounted, set up machine guns and independent regimental infantry companies to shoot, and some planned to outflank and give full play to the cavalry's mobility ability.
But the three jumpers are in this kind of terrain, the mobility is simply that, and they can't catch up with the horses on horseback, seeing the devil rushing over, the general machine gun in the hands of the company commander who commanded the machine infantry company directly hit a bullet chain, and the suppressed devil machine gun couldn't raise his head, and then the three jumpers on the seat who had not turned off the ignition, twisted the throttle, and suddenly left only a back for the devil.
This scene made Kuroshima Osa angry again.
But he hadn't adjusted the formation yet, and in front, the cavalry battalion of the Independent Regiment had already drawn an arc, completed the U-turn, and then under the leadership of Sun Desheng, charged at the devil.
"Cavalry battalion, attack."
Sun Desheng held the submachine gun in one hand, the grip in his shoulder, and the reins in the other, and launched an attack on the devil cavalry wing.
The rest of the cavalry battalion soldiers, also with a submachine gun in one hand and a reins in the other, charged at full speed.
Sun Desheng originally just planned to contain the devil cavalry wing, but after carefully looking at the terrain here, he thought of the firepower here, and planned to cripple this group of devil cavalry.
"Kill and give..."
In the face of the charge of the cavalry of the independent regiment, Kuroshima Osa naturally did not panic at all, integrated the team, raised the saber in his hand and prepared for a cavalry charge.
But just approaching two hundred meters, when the devil also raised the 38-style cavalry gun in his hand and began to shoot, da· The cavalry battalion of the Independent Regiment opened fire, and the PPS43 submachine gun in his hand that had been modified by the system was covered by a barrage of bullets.
With one shot in the face, dozens of cavalry fell from the devil, and many military horses were also hit.
At this scene, Kuroshima Osa was so angry that he almost died on the spot, but he gritted his teeth and prepared to slash a few people with a saber to show off his saber skills that he had practiced hard for more than ten years.
"Spread out..."
Sun Desheng sneered, scattered with the cavalry company, and directly missed the devil's charging formation, during which the submachine gun in his hand continued to strafe, and the devil fell down again.
Saber slash?
Isn't it fragrant for a submachine gun to burst out?
····
"Yaga..."
Just when Kuroshima Daisa's eyes were about to split for the third time, on the other side, the machine infantry company had already circled back with its speed, and the machine guns on the side fight were once again sudden.
Another series of devils fell like wheat.
"Withdraw..."
Taking a few deep breaths, the many people on the Black Island gave the order to retreat with wide eyes.
Although he was so angry, he was able to mix up with the identity of Dazuo and become a cavalry wing captain, and Kuroshima still had the ability.
He is well aware of the current situation.
The cavalry wing has an advantage in strength, but the firepower is at an absolute disadvantage, the machine gun cannot be used on horseback, the gap between the cavalry gun and the submachine gun is too large, and the mobility that the cavalry values is also at a disadvantage compared to the motorcycle on this terrain, and continuing to fight is bound to be a big defeat.
When the time comes, there will be no retreat.
At this time, Kuroshima suddenly understood in his heart, why he had been left behind to protect the artillery unit, this firepower, his cavalry wing rushed to the front line, I am afraid that it will not be gone in one round.
However, although the devils retreated quickly when they saw the opportunity, the losses were still not small, and more than one-third of the devils fell in front of the mountains and forests.
"Ten minutes to clean up the battlefield, let's retreat."
Seeing the devil retreating, Sun Desheng did not chase after him, but ordered the soldiers to clean up the battlefield, and after simply collecting the horses, weapons and ammunition left by the devil, he quickly drove away.
In this battle, the losses of the cavalry battalion were not small.
After all, the devil has an advantage in numbers, and the accuracy of the 38-style cavalry gun is not low, and the quality of the soldiers of the Black Island Cavalry Wing is not to be said, even if they are ambushed and in a passive state, more than forty cavalry battalion soldiers are killed or wounded.
······
At the same time.
On the dirt road from Shou County to Yangquan, the Devil's First Heavy Artillery Brigade was advancing with difficulty.
Several tracked tractor engines vibrated violently, and black smoke came out of the exhaust pipes, clattering and dragging the disassembled 240 heavy guns forward, and along the way, the responsible devil Shaozuo cursed.
He's not scolding the cannon.
In fact, although this heavy artillery was put into service decades ago, its performance is still very satisfactory, the range is okay, the power is needless to say, no matter how strong the civil bunker is, it can be solved with one shot, and the ten-meter-deep underground ammunition depot can also be destroyed, which can meet the needs of the Imperial Army.
He scolded the towed locomotive.
The 240 heavy artillery could not be fully equipped and towed, so after the final shells were fired, he began to organize people to disassemble the cannons, assemble them and prepare for the return journey, and after receiving the order to retreat, he quickly set off, but at this time it had been six hours since the departure, and he had only walked less than 15 kilometers.
Along the way, the towed track-towed vehicle had a problem from time to time, either engine failure or transmission system failure, so angry that he scolded and slapped several maintenance workers.
"Yaga, waste..."
Continuing to scold, he could only let the maintenance worker continue to repair the locomotive, and finally, looking at the front hood of the locomotive that had been disassembled, this young man sighed deeply.
If there is a disadvantage, it is that this gun is too heavy and needs to be towed by a special traction locomotive.
This locomotive was also too old, badly aged, and there were not enough parts, and it was a miracle to tinker with it by now, and the Imperial Army's military spending was too scarce to afford to purchase a new traction locomotive.
"Damn navy red deer."
The devil Shaozuo, who was holding back his anger, finally had to scold the navy red deer.
It's all to blame for the navy's red deer to occupy so much military spending.
"The guards spread out the cordon."
Seeing that the sky was gradually darkening, the devil Shaozuo ordered.
······
"What are you doing, little devil..."
"Fuck, walking so slowly."
At this time, it was already evening, and the commander of the second company of the first battalion looked at the devil artillery brigade in the distance and stopped from time to time, confused, and even scolded.
He planted a mine in front, but the devil walked for so long and didn't arrive yet.
"I guess it's repairing a tractor."
After all, the deputy company commander and platoon commander have been trained at the headquarters and know a lot of things: "This heavy artillery is very heavy and requires a lot of strength to tow, and the quality of the little devil tractor is probably not good, and it will break down after a few steps." ”
"It's still Boss Chen's stuff."
The commander of the second company muttered a word, and then held the binoculars to look at the devil heavy artillery unit in the distance.
"Company commander, there is a minesweeper in front of the devil, and the devils on both wings are spreading very wide, shall we still do it?"
The deputy company commander who also served as the platoon commander asked:
"Looking at the devil's movements, it seems that he doesn't plan to leave tonight."
After seeing the Devil's Heavy Artillery Brigade, he hesitated.
With the devils on guard, during the day, it was difficult for the rope index mines in the regiment not to be detected.
After suffering several losses, the little devil also summed up his experience, and it was difficult for the ambush not to be discovered. And the number of devils in the heavy artillery brigade in front of him is not small, more than 400 people, and they are only more than 100 people, and the gap in strength is too big.
"Dig up the mines."
The second company commander thought for a moment and said:
"I'm afraid the mines can't be handled, so let's attack at night."
"In the middle of the night, when the little devil is careless, rush up and directly blow up the devil's cannon and withdraw, don't entangle with them, and remember to kill the little devil's tractor driver when the time comes."
"A devil driver, but a year's harvest of 100 acres of land!"
