Chapter 801: Cavalry Demining

The machine gunners suffered heavy casualties, not to mention the artillery.

The entire artillery position has withstood almost several carpet bombardments by devils, the ground has been cut off by dozens of centimeters, and the ground has been blown out of countless craters.

Fortunately, Yang Yun had the foresight to see that he could not do anything, so he directly ordered the artillery brothers to withdraw from the position, so that more than a dozen artillery brothers survived, otherwise, I am afraid that the officers and soldiers of this platoon will die on the position.

Although some of the artillery officers and men were evacuated, those shelling runs and grenadiers were all blown into piles of broken copper and iron under the baptism of devil fire, and those artillery brothers were painful.

But the next moment, they were all relieved, because these guys were all captured from the hands of the devils, and they were destroyed in the hands of the devils at the moment, which was not a big deal for them, and it was a big deal that they would have the opportunity to seize another batch from the devils in the future.

They have such self-confidence in seizing supplies from the devils, just because they are soldiers of the new regiment, and their regimental seat is Yang Yun.

Although as artillerymen, it does not mean that they will only shoot artillery.

Mortars and grenadiers were gone, and they still had pistols, which was also standard for every artillery brother of the new regiment.

Since the devils had not yet rushed within the effective range of the pistols, these artillery brothers simply rushed forward to pick up the weapons and guns left behind by the brothers who died on the battlefield.

Those brothers have been killed in battle, and the next road is up to them.

Because the devil's firepower was so fierce, although the machine gunners of the first battalion would change positions every time they finished firing a shuttle of bullets, many officers and men still died tragically under the devil's shells.

Because the artillery position of the new regiment was completely destroyed, there was no threat of shells at this moment, and the machine gunners were completely suppressed, at this time, the devil simply launched a fierce charge directly against the three battalions led by Yang Yun.

The firepower of the devils was so strong that the three battalions even had some reluctance to counterattack.

Especially as long as the machine gun sounds, within ten seconds, it will inevitably be bombarded by the devil's artillery.

As a last resort, Yang Yun could only lead the officers and soldiers of the third battalion to fight and retreat.

Fortunately, he had prepared in advance and planted some mines on the evacuation route.

These mines are marked with markings, and all the officers and men of the new regiment know them, so naturally they will not step on them.

But the devils didn't know that when they saw Yang Yun leading the officers and soldiers of the first battalion to evacuate, they rushed more violently and arrogantly.

And so, tragedy struck.

Some devils stepped on a mine and were directly blown off the dog's legs.

Some of them hung up directly, but those who didn't hang up were lying on the ground at the moment wailing left and right in pain, and the screams were heartbreaking, hitting the hearts of the rest of the devils, making them afraid, and they didn't dare to pursue unscrupulously for a while.

"Yaga! We must not allow these hateful officers and soldiers to escape so easily! ”

Seeing this, the devil who commanded the battle, Dazuo, looked at the battlefield in front of him with eyes that almost wanted to breathe fire, and his face was even more angry.

"Keep chasing for me! Kill the chicken and give! ”

"Your Excellency, but...... But there's a mine ahead. ”

A devil Shaozuo said with some bitterness.

"Let the cavalry open the way and fight the vanguard!"

After a pause, Dazuo continued: "Is there an Imperial Army of the Cavalry Wing here? ”

"Report to Your Excellency Dazuo, mine is from the cavalry wing!"

"Report to Your Excellency Dazuo, mine is also from the cavalry wing!"

"Mine is ...... too"

"Mine is ...... too"

As the order of the devil Dazuo was delivered, soon, dozens of devil cavalry gathered around him.

In fact, this is really normal, after all, at this moment, which unit of the devil's garrison is the most complete, there is only a cavalry wing and an artillery wing.

Even the logistical baggage wing and the engineer wing are much more seriously reduced than the cavalry wing and the artillery wing.

In particular, the 9th Engineer Regiment of the 9th Division was completely wiped out.

In addition, the ability of artillery to fight head-on is far inferior to that of cavalry, so the main force of the battle at this moment is almost all devil cavalry.

There are cavalry, but what makes the devil Dazuo frown is that the cavalry is called cavalry only when it is on a horse.

And at the moment, all these cavalry have no war horses, so how different is it from the infantry?

The reason why the devil Dazuo planned to let the cavalry company open fire to fight the vanguard was not because he wanted the devils of the cavalry company to go to death, but because he saw that the mines laid out by the new regiment were basically loose mines.

Loosening the fuse is a kind of secondary action fuse, when the soldier steps on the mine, it does not detonate immediately, the pressure will trigger and release the fuse's safety pin, so that the mine is ready to fight, when the soldier raises his foot, the fuse releases the spring, hits the striking pin, and the impact fire cap detonates the mine.

When a soldier steps on a mine, the mine does not explode immediately, but only when the soldier lifts his foot.

Therefore, when a soldier realizes that he has stepped on a loose mine, and then does not move, there is actually a chance to clear the mine, but the risk factor is also not low.

Of course, there is a simpler and more straightforward way, which is to lift your feet fast enough.

As long as the soldier lifts his feet and leaves quickly enough to get out of a safe position when a mine explodes, he can avoid being injured by a mine explosion.

However, the feasibility of this approach is very low, because under normal circumstances, the soldier can lift his foot and leave faster than the mine explodes.

Therefore, if you step on a loose hair mine and choose to raise your leg to compare the speed, the light one leg or even both legs will be directly blown off, and the serious one will be directly blown to pieces, depending on the power of the mine.

Although Rao's speed is not as fast as a mine explosion, there are things that can, such as war horses.

Moreover, if a person rides on horseback, even if the war horse detonates the mine, because of a certain distance, even if the war horse is injured, there will not necessarily be anything wrong.

In many cases, perhaps because there are no sappers, or in a hurry, cavalry demining is a last resort.

And right now, what the devil Dazuo thinks of is undoubtedly this method.

"Give me the horse to come quickly!"

"Hay!"

Although the devil's subordinates didn't understand what His Excellency Dazuo wanted, they still quickly took the order, and about a few minutes later, dozens of devil cavalry rode from the garrison of the cavalry wing.

Almost all the devil officers and soldiers were brainwashed by **** extremist thoughts, and all they wanted was to serve their imperial majesty, not only was they not afraid of death, but they were proud to be able to return to that bullshit bird club after death.

Therefore, after hearing His Excellency's order, these devil cavalry almost did not hesitate at all, and rode straight to the minefield ahead.
