"Woo ......"

"Woo ......"

The lonely gunshots rang out one after another, and Wu Chaoyang reined in his war horse and inserted the saber that had no chance to get blood back into the scabbard. Ten minutes ago, hundreds of horses had charged on this muddy land, and now only three horses were left to carry the riders galloping.

Judging from the distance, Wu Chaoyang and they can't catch up even if they are full of strength. The cavalrymen who outflanked the right flank also put away their weapons like the battalion commander and quietly watched the final killing of the Guangfu Army.

More than a dozen infantrymen were lying on the front of the truck with sniper rifles equipped with 1.5x binoculars, which was a small vantage point in the position. The sound of gunfire is the effort of these snipers to annihilate the enemy.

After firing the seventh shot, one of the horsemen rolled over and fell from his horse. At the twelfth shot, another cavalryman was hit by a bullet in the back of the hat on his head, and the rider was lying limply on his horse, and when the horse ran out more than ten meters, the body of this man fell off the horse crookedly.

The last remaining rider continued to gallop under the watchful eyes of nearly 2,000 people. The sunlight shone through the cracks in the clouds, as if countless straight lightsabers were plunging from the sky to the ground. The rider galloped through these pillars of light, and his clothes were even more mottled by the light.

"Bang!" In the midst of the gunfire suddenly a cannon rang out. A moment later, the cannonball landed accurately near the rider, and Wu Chaoyang saw that the horse was immediately swept down by the air wave, and the rider was even swept into the air by the air wave. This power is not 37 guns, it is clearly 75 guns.

You have to use 75 guns to fight a cavalry? The choice of the artillery unit of the motorized infantry regiment made Wu Chaoyang dumbfounded.

Qi Rui also felt that this was a bit excessive, but he didn't want to blame the artillerymen. This "lucky" American cavalryman had already run a distance of more than a kilometer, and the rifle was helpless against him. No need to bombard, this guy really ran away. Daddy Wei Ze once told Qi Rui about the future war, which would be the world of "fire hell".

Wei Ze's vision is naturally not comparable to Qi Rui, from the war of the 20th century to World War II, killing a cavalryman with a shell is a very, very, very cost-effective deal. It didn't even take until World War II, during World War I, the famous Battle of Verdun Meat Grinder broke out in Verdun, Germany and France invested more than 100 divisions, more than 250,000 troops were killed, and more than 500,000 were injured. Not to mention how many bullets were fired, at the beginning of the battle, the German army relied on its artillery superiority to make a big show of the might of the "artillery god". In the first fire assault, at a speed of 100,000 rounds per hour, 2 million shells rained down on the French artillery positions. Just for the capture of the French Douaumont battery, the Germans fired 120,000 shells. In that bloody battle, if two shells could kill a French soldier, the Germans would have cheered.

Qi Rui just listened to his father's general description of "fire hell", and immediately his hairs stood on end, and his back was cold. With the war he had seen, Qi Rui couldn't understand that someone could survive under such a firepower hell. Looking at the father's flat attitude, the soldier can not only survive under such a fire hell, but also fight and even charge under that fire hell. Qi Rui had to suspect that his father Wei Ze was making up a "shameful" joke.

Weeser is a man who doesn't speak, and it makes no sense for him to make up lies. Weeser doesn't think it's useful to explain too much, though. For example, in the Battle of Shangganling, the US army poured more than 190 rounds of artillery shells and more than 5,000 bombs on the 3.7-square-kilometer position of the Chinese People's Volunteers. The intensity of the fighting was unprecedented, especially the density of artillery fire, which exceeded the highest level of World War II.

Wei Ze believed that Qi Rui could not understand this kind of thing. This is not to say that Qi Rui can't understand the Volunteer Army, but that Qi Rui will probably never be able to understand that great China would fall into such an abyss of despair. If you can't understand that kind of despair, you probably can't understand the incomparable fighting spirit that bursts out of that deepest despair. After the great red flag was finally raised, with great hope for the future, the soldiers who followed the banner ignored all suffering and death, passed through all the difficulties and dangers that human beings could not imagine at that time, and finally created an unprecedented miracle of liberation in the history of mankind. Miracles may not be understood even by those who have seen them, and those who have not seen them will never be able to understand them.

Although he didn't underestimate his son's thoughts, Wei Ze suspected that the biggest despair his son had felt so far might be the recent loss of love. So looking at his son's heartfelt expression of surprise, Weser stopped describing the fire hell and said something else.

When the last American cavalry was killed by the 75 field guns, Qi Rui was actually relieved. The motorized infantry has created unprecedented results, and if in the past, after a regiment of infantry had marched 30 kilometers in half a day, it was not small to face a sudden onslaught of three or four hundred cavalry. Even if they were able to quickly complete the defensive formation, the exhausted infantry faced the cavalry with greater mobility and watched them go back and forth.

Now the mobility of the cavalry is not something to boast about, if not insignificant in the face of motorized infantry. After running 30 kilometers, the array can be completed in ten minutes, giving the cavalry a devastating blow. Qi Rui believes that he has made history after fully borrowing the wisdom of his father.

Since history has been created, Qi Rui cannot but agree with the campaign concept of "concentrating superior forces to fight a war of annihilation" proposed by Daddy Wei Ze. Kill the Yankees cleanly, and no one will be able to run back to report the news. In other words, the next time the Yankees may stupidly rush up and send them to death. Because he has no hobby of masochism, Qi Rui firmly believes that it is far better to easily torture and kill idiot enemies to win by beating each other to the point of beating people into dogheads with respectable opponents. From this point of view, the shells of that 75 guns are worth a lot.

The team was closed very quickly, and the cadres in the regiment gathered together, and without waiting to boast of this great victory, Wu Chaoyang said: "I and the cavalry explored the road in front and found that there seemed to be an American camp in the mountainous area. Just as he was about to lean over and take a look, the group of American cavalry rushed out. We ran all the way back. I didn't expect the Yankees to be really brainless, and they actually chased after it. ”

Hearing this, Qi Rui immediately felt that the 75-gun shell was a bit worthless, it turned out that the Yankees had set up a military camp at the junction of the mountains and the plains. Looking up at the peaks hidden in the dense woods, I don't know how many American soldiers witnessed the battle. The desire for secrecy seems to have been frustrated.

Most of the deputy regiment commanders heard that there were still enemies, and there were still enemy camps, so he was energetic. He shouted, "Are we going to fight in the past? Or do you want to fire and scout first? ”

There is not much difference between these two words in motorized infantry, and the regiment commander Ma Xiaoming rolled his eyes and said to Qi Rui: "Political commissar, is it better to inform the large troops behind first?" ”

"After the infantry has run these 30 kilometers, will they still have the strength to fight?" Wu Chaoyang raised a very real question. But the question came out of his mouth a little strangely. Therefore, the organizers of the motorized infantry all looked at Wu Chaoyang who was asking for battle with a little surprise.

Wu Chaoyang hurriedly explained: "We must first keep in touch with the enemy. Further inside, it is mountainous, not to mention the difficulty of trucks, and even our cavalry is not so easy to chase. Seeing the cavalry being killed like this, it is possible that the Yankees chose to flee......"

After listening to Wu Chaoyang's reasoning, regimental staff officer Li Yannian smiled and said: "Battalion Commander Wu, it depends on how we talk to the military department." If you get up, or even bite the enemy, you have to get the understanding of the military department. If the military department thinks that one of our regiments is commanding the military headquarters, it will not be appropriate. ”

Li Yannian is very insightful about this kind of relationship between superiors and subordinates, and he can explain the thoughts of everyone in the regiment headquarters clearly in a few words. In the battle that just ended, two fighters were cut in the arms by bullets. The skin on the heads of the three warriors who were not very broken by the fierce operation of the truck. Although the blood flow was terrifying, a simple stitching and bandaging did not even affect the five people to continue fighting.

Five wounded to more than three hundred dead, after such a result, no one of the young soldiers would stop. But the number of enemies is unknown, and if it is a situation where reinforcements are needed, the military department will probably think that these young men want the military department to wipe their butts after stabbing the basket. There was a problem with this idea, the motorized infantry regiment really wanted to solve the battle independently, at least not to be overridden by other division commanders. After a wonderful performance, everyone is really looking forward to the next more exquisite performance.

"Finding a camp where a large number of suspected enemy troops are stationed, our unit is conducting a tentative attack and requesting support from the military headquarters." Qi Rui said the draft he had just typed.

"Good!" Ma Xiaoming saw that Qi Rui was preparing to use the motorized infantry regiment as the main force of the attack, and he immediately agreed.

"I support it!" Deputy head Qian mostly also expressed his attitude.

"I'll take the cavalry up and take a look." Wu Chaoyang directly asked for an order.

"I'll send the report." Li Yannian took on the responsibilities brought by his position.

The telegram soon arrived at the military headquarters, and before Commander Wu could speak, Division Commander Zheng said angrily: "What do these bastard boys mean? Think we haven't fought? ”

The other two division commanders couldn't help but laugh out loud when they heard this, and even Commander Wu was happy. They are all people who have been on the battlefield since they were young, and after a victory, they are ready to take advantage of the victory to chase after a battle, which is something that no one has ever done. I'm worried about going in and out, and I'm worried that a leader from above will make it impossible for me to play to the fullest. Now these old guys have had such troubles when they were younger.

However, there are other reasons for Commander Zheng's anger, and the motorized infantry regiment is a very important unit in the North American Military Region. These boys eat alone like this, which makes it easier for people to have a sense of lawlessness.

Commander Wu said with a smile: "Lao Zheng, your troops are at the front, you take the troops to help them." Tell those boys directly, if you want to fight to your heart's content, just say it, don't be vague, it's like obeying the command and suffering a lot of losses. We're old, but we're not confused! ”
