Chapter 400: The Dragon Cavalry Army
Quietly waited until dawn.
The devil cowered on the fortress and the high ground, and did not move.
As soon as the day was dark, Han Feng organized personnel to count the original battlefield on the riverbank, find the enemy's corpse, and count the results.
After more than an hour of statistics, more than 7,000 corpses could be found.
This was the fortification area of the Japanese fortress group on the eastern and western fronts, and most of them were burned to death.
In the middle of the riverbank, there were more than 1,000 Japanese corpses, but there were too many pieces of disarray, and it can only be estimated that more than 3,000 to 5,000 enemies were destroyed.
Han Feng estimated that in last night's battle, the Chinese army relied on sneak attack tactics and powerful artillery fire to eliminate about 15,000 Japanese troops in total.
It was a brilliant victory. A remarkable victory, in the face of the absolute difference in strength, the rabble of the Chinese army fought a series of beautiful turnarounds.
Ye Zheng and Du Fenglie both came.
To ensure safety, they disguised themselves as ordinary soldiers.
The three old comrades-in-arms shook hands excitedly and were full of emotion.
Ye Zheng, who turned out to be an ordinary underground party member, Du Fenglie, was just an ordinary former grassroots officer of the National Army, who was trembling under the iron hooves of the Japanese army, and his life was worrying, but he was just a prisoner of war and a refugee, and now he has grown into a major member of the field and a heroic general.
Du Fenglie left a small number of people in Jinling City, and the rest, all those who were willing to participate in the battle and take revenge, were sent to this position after simple training.
Now, the Chinese troops besieging the positions in the vicinity of the enemy's coal port have increased to 100,000 men!
There are more than 10,000 elite soldiers, and the rest are also recruits with a resolute will to fight.
Han Feng explained yesterday's battle.
Du Fenglie and Ye Zheng are most puzzled, where did the yellow phosphorus bomb come from?
Who sent such powerful shells?
Du Fenglie knew that the production of yellow phosphorus bombs was complicated, and it was even more difficult to transport and store, so many, thousands of rounds, how to transport them here smoothly?
Han Feng couldn't answer directly, so he could only smile: "God helps you!" Some of our good things were intercepted by the enemy's convoy, and some were sent to us by secret agents! Don't dwell on this for the time being! ”
Hearing that there were secret channels and forces secretly helping, the two generals smiled.
The three of them discussed the matter of battlefield command.
It was decided to dig more trenches and completely surround the enemy.
Divisional command, mutual contact, to ensure combat effectiveness.
The main forces will be mobilized to train outside the battlefield for field and assault warfare, long-distance marching, reconnaissance, counterattack, and the use of various weapons and ammunition.
The focus is on familiarizing ourselves with the various military regulations and on the rapid regularization of our troops.
Du Fenglie is the training director and is in charge of training, so more than 50,000 people have been transferred to the troops who have arrived for battlefield training.
Ye Zheng, as the commander-in-chief of the siege, handed over all the shells and artillery fire captured last night to Ye Zheng for control and assigned them to various units to strengthen their combat effectiveness.
In the vicinity of the riverbank wharf, a special defense zone was set up and an infantry battalion was mobilized for defense.
Han Feng himself, led a field unit of more than 5,000 people, separated from the battlefield and trained in the eastern riverbank area.
One surrounds, one moves randomly, one strengthens the training of reserve troops, the Hanfeng Legion, surrounds more than 10,000 enemies, as hostages, attracting more enemy reinforcements.
In the decisive battle under Jinling City, our army waited for work at ease, and it was a home battle, which had more advantages.
The main reason why Han Feng did not go all out to attack the enemy's coal port position was that his own troops lacked the ability to attack on a large scale, and they had not undergone much training, and if they attacked directly, they were afraid that they would lose themselves heavily.
Under no circumstances should you be brutal.
You can't joke with the lives of soldiers.
A day passed.
From the Yangtze River, the Japanese sent small gunboats to disrupt and bombarded several cannons.
However, once the Chinese troops deployed on the river bank bombarded the Japanese gunboats with infantry and mountain artillery, the Japanese troops felt bad and hurriedly withdrew.
On the Eastern Front, the Japanese army also sent some troops to conduct reconnaissance and testing, and, as a result, a sensational special combat incident occurred.
The battle of the Dragon Cavalry Brigade.
At noon that day, a small group of Japanese cavalry went out from the east to reconnoiter the encirclement of the Chinese army.
The commander-in-chief of the besieging army of the Chinese army is Ye Zheng, and on the eastern front, on the periphery, there are many trenches.
There are also a lot of officers and soldiers, who are there to monitor the enemy.
When the Japanese cavalry entered a distance of 300 meters, they immediately opened fire with machine guns, killing and wounding three Japanese cavalrymen and two horses on the spot.
The Japanese army was defeated.
Subsequently, the Japanese cavalry, divided into small units, continued to sneak attack. Spying, approaching.
They were all swept back by the Chinese army.
The Japanese army lost more than 30 cavalry and more than 20 horses.
In the afternoon, the Japanese cavalry retreated.
In fact, the Japanese troops did not really retreat, but gathered and hid in some villages in the east.
Han Feng is not in charge of these enemies.
Since it was a small group of enemies, it was a matter of encircling the guard troops on the periphery of the legion, and Han Feng was unwilling to interfere too much with the authority of the junior officers.
He reminded Ye Zheng on the phone to pay attention to the movements of the enemy's cavalry.
"The cavalry has strong mobility, at present, our army is mostly new recruits, for the crushing assault of the cavalry group, lack of psychological preparation, the quality of the machine guns equipped by our army is not good, and the dense rapid-fire firepower is insufficient, so the threat of the enemy's cavalry is still very great, you must be careful!"
Ye Zheng was also very cautious, and especially ordered those vigilant troops to be careful of the enemy.
They increased the digging of the trenches, so that even if the enemy cavalry reached them, they could not pass through.
Han Feng also put forward a suggestion, asking the troops on the periphery to dig a large number of other horse pits in front of the position!
Yes, more than a foot deep, if not, half a foot deep is fine, a lot of digging.
This kind of thing is very powerful, once the hooves of the war horse step into it, it will be clamped, and the high-speed charging war horse continues to rush forward because of the strong inertia, and the horse's legs can be broken in an instant!
A horse's leg was broken, and the devil's horses and cavalry were useless.
It's common sense.
Ye Zheng also knew that a large number of traps and horse holes were dug on the periphery of the Eastern Front.
Some officers and soldiers are very smart, they stick very thick sharp wooden pegs into the ground, smash stones or hammers, smash them into them, and then shake them from side to side.
At night, the siege continued by Chinese troops.
The main forces of the Japanese army were nowhere to be found.
The Japanese planes did not come, and they were really frightened by the mysterious anti-aircraft missiles of the Hanfeng army.
However, in the evening, the Japanese cavalry brigade was dispatched.
This unit is known as the Longxiang Cavalry Brigade.
The total strength is 600 people.
This was a reinforced cavalry brigade.
Ordinary brigade, only four hundred people.
Cavalry is much more difficult to equip and maintain than infantry, and the maintenance, training, and so on of a military horse cost a lot of money.
Cavalry is one of the elite of the Japanese army.
The Longxiang Brigade is the honorary title of this cavalry unit.
The glorious history of participating in the war of aggression against China many times has made every Japanese soldier of the Longxiang Cavalry Brigade very confident.
Their mission was to crush the Chinese army and save the Japanese army in the coal port. Net starter
