Chapter 388: The Great Sweep: Fierce Cavalry Battle

Yellow uniforms, snowy sabers, the devil's cavalry troops quickly rushed into the mountain pass, straight to the open field, the front cavalry with a horse pistol in hand, is galloping towards this side. Behind them were cavalrymen armed with sabers, about three or four miles apart.

"Captain, what should I do?"

The soldiers of the guard squad rushed to the front, and they gathered around He Jian, watching the devil cavalry pouring out of the mountain pass on the opposite side.

"The third column will get rid of those remnants of the enemy as soon as possible, join us and the second column, and prepare for battle." He Jian pondered for a moment, and then said in a deep voice, "The enemy on the opposite side is hard stubble, I'm afraid there will be a bloody battle, but this is the first battle since our He family army joined the Yanhuang Corps, so we can only win, not defeat, let alone disappoint Commander Luo." ”

"Yes."

All the cavalry responded in unison.

Receiving his order, the first and second columns quickly broke away from the battle and rushed to his side, taking up battle formation, while the third column quickened the pace of clearing out the remnants of the Japanese army, and wanted to join the battle before the devils arrived.

Two columns, one hundred and twenty horses, one hundred and twenty sabers, and one hundred and twenty hot-blooded men stood quietly in the battlefield, waiting for the arrival of the enemy.

The devil's cavalry galloped over Mukai Jingming's side, and then someone escorted him to the rear to join the infantry, while the remaining cavalry gathered in battle formation, waiting for the arrival of the follow-up troops.

After receiving a report that Mukai Jingming's squadron was ambushed, the 18th Brigade of the Japanese Independent Mixed Brigade immediately sent a cavalry wing and an infantry brigade to support. But they never imagined that Xiang Jing Jingming's squadron, which had good combat effectiveness, would be defeated so quickly, and even the squadron leader Xiang Jing Ming was almost killed.

It's also incredible.

It was precisely because of this that Amperi XIII, the commander of the cavalry wing, who was the vanguard of the cavalry to come to support, cautiously stopped and waited for all the cavalry forces behind him to arrive.

The 18th Brigade of the Japanese Army had a total of two cavalry wings, namely the Ampere 13th Cavalry Wing and the Jing 24 Column Cavalry Wing, each cavalry wing had 300 cavalry and 500 war horses, and its combat effectiveness was quite weak.

With the old eyes of Ampere who has been the commander of the cavalry wing for more than 13 years, it can be seen at a glance that although the cavalry unit on the opposite side does not seem to have received formal cavalry training, its combat effectiveness is very strong, and its fighting style is flexible and eclectic.

He knew that such a team was the most difficult to deal with, because you couldn't figure out their combat style, so you could only improvise and see the moves.

However, Ampere XIII was quite confident of winning, after all, he was leading three hundred elite cavalry with formal training, and he was supported by infantry.

While he was thinking, a large force of the cavalry wing arrived, and three hundred elite Japanese cavalry lined up in a neat offensive formation, quietly waiting for the wing commander to give an order.

At this time, He Jian's third column on the opposite side had also finished cleaning the battlefield, and Xiang Jing Jingming's squadron was completely wiped out in the hands of his cavalry, and less than ten people could escape alive in the end.

After the third column arrived, He Jian pointed at his sabre, and the team slowly dispersed, assuming the offensive formation that he was most accustomed to using.

The two sides were facing each other from a distance of about a mile, neither of them attacking, and both were observing the situation of the other.

There was silence in the open field, except for the occasional neighing of the horses, except for the whistling of the wind.

Ampere XIII held the reins of his horse in one hand and his saber in the other, and sat straight on his horse, his gaze crossing the distance between the two sides and falling on one of the men in the cavalry group opposite.

The man seemed to be looking at him, too, and their eyes collided.

"It's a tough opponent to play against." He Jian's heart sank, and he could see the old spiciness, perseverance, and composure that had been on the battlefield for a long time in Amper's thirteen eyes.

In the same way, Ampere Thirteen also had the same feeling in his heart.

"The 1st Brigade of the Cavalry Wing, attack!" After a moment of silence, Ampere XIII raised his saber in his hand and gave the order in a hoarse voice.

A hundred Japanese cavalrymen shook the reins of their horses, and the horses under their crotches immediately stepped on all fours and began to sprint, and the smoke and dust raised from the back of the horses soared into the sky, as if a huge tornado had risen from the ground.

The saber was raised, the shout shook the sky, the cavalry training of the devil was very good, and in such a rapid gallop, the formation was not chaotic, and a relatively neat queue was maintained.

He Jian took a deep breath, inserted the blood-red long knife back behind his back, and then pulled out the double saber, slashed towards him, and roared, "Kill!" ”

The soldiers of the third column urged their horses and swept forward like a mad race, meeting the cavalry of the devils.

The distance between the two sides was rapidly approaching, and as the distance got closer, it was already possible to see the faces under the other's military hats.

At this moment, Zhu Hua, the commander of the third column, shouted, and then suddenly increased his speed, "Sharp arrow formation, charge." ”

In the high-speed gallop, the third column magically changed its formation, and the formation that was originally spread out horizontally turned into a narrow and narrow arrow formation in the blink of an eye, crashing towards the devil's cavalry.

The two sides collided violently, sabers raised each other, screaming and screaming, blood splattered everywhere along with limbs, and people kept falling from their horses, and then the ownerless war horse ran away with a wail.

Amperre 13 subconsciously frowned, he didn't expect that the cavalry team on the opposite side would be so skilled in riding to such an extent, and they could change their formation like this in a high-speed gallop, and there was no confusion at all.

"The commander on the other side is outstanding." To be able to make Amperi Thirteen, who has always been strict in governing the army, give such an evaluation, it has already proved that He Jian is powerful.

The 1st Cavalry Brigade of the Devils adopted a horizontal charge formation, but the 3rd Column, which was supposed to hedge against them, suddenly changed to the most conducive to breaking through the sharp arrow formation at the last moment, so it was like an awl and cardboard, and of course it was Ampere 13's cavalry troops who suffered.

In a few breaths, the third column broke through from the devil cavalry unit and successfully scuttled through their ranks.

After rushing behind them, Zhu Hua whistled, and the third column did not run forward in a straight line, but separated to the left and right, and ran in an arc to both sides of the First Cavalry Brigade of the devils. From a distance, it looked like the teeth on both sides of a pair of pincers, outflanking the devil's troops.

"Huh?"

Amper's eyes widened in surprise, it was the first time he had seen such a magical cavalry tactic, you must know that he was learning orthodox cavalry training, all of which were decent, one-size-fits-all, and square as if they were machines.

This kind of creative style of play suddenly opened his eyes, and he seemed to have discovered something.
