Chapter 411: Cavalry Decisive Battle (2)
In the cavalry position of the Huaxia Army, Zhan Wenjia and Huyan Dazhu stood in the command position, watching the movement of the Hubei cavalry.
Zhan Wenjia said: "The Hubei army is about to attack!" ”
Huyan Dazhu said: "We are waiting for his attack!" The emperor said that we have air supremacy, information supremacy, and far more firepower than the Hubei army, and this will definitely be able to repel the attack of the Hubei cavalry, the only question is how many Hubei cavalry to destroy! ”
"This battle will definitely be won, this time I will command, next time I will definitely ask the emperor to hand over your command!"
Hu Zhen attached great importance to the battle between the cavalry, and he personally ordered that the cavalry battle should be commanded by Zhan Wenjia, the commander of the 4th Cavalry Division, and Huyan Dazhu, the commander of the 5th Cavalry Division, as the deputy commander.
"Jiajia, don't worry, I'm not such a chicken-bellied person!"
Zhan Wenjia is white and clean, and his colleagues call him a feminine name "Jiajia", but Zhan Wenjia doesn't care about it.
"Big pig." Huyan Dazhu is so fleshy, everyone calls him "Big Pig", Zhan Wenjia is no exception, he continued: "Now our cavalry career has just started, exercise more, and the future is immeasurable!" ”
"What is promising? You forgot what the emperor said, mechanization is the direction of the future development, and our cavalry on horseback is just a transitional branch! ”
"In this transitional stage, it seems that more than ten or eight years is not enough, how much can be done in ten or eight years? Ah, the Hubei army has moved! ”
With Zhan Wenjia's words, Huyan Dazhu looked at the enemy formation, and saw that the cavalry of the Hubei army brigade had moved, unfolding a huge formation, and the black pressure formation looked like the endless shadow of men and horses, slowly pressing towards the Huaxia army cavalry formation.
This gives people great psychological pressure, and the timid people may be scared away, but the more than 20,000 cavalry of the Chinese Army a few days ago, each of them killed a few Japanese soldiers in the battle, and there has been a qualitative change in psychology.
Huyan Dazhu felt very satisfied: "Okay, after killing more than 100,000 enemies, everyone's image and temperament are completely different!" ”
"Okay." Zhan Wenjia also nodded in agreement, and issued an order: "Let the people who arranged grenades in front of the position return to their own formation!" ”
It turned out that when the Hubei army saw the scattered personnel in front of the Huaxia Army's position from a distance, they were not digging any horse trap well, nor were they pulling any horse ropes, but inserted some wooden poles in the range of 200 meters in front of the position, tied some grenades that pulled the string covers, and tied the fire rope directly to the wooden poles, which was a small gift to the charging Hubei cavalry.
The cavalry of the Hubei army slowly walked a kilometer away from the position of the Huaxia army.
This is not only within the range of all the cavalry guns of the cavalry division, even the heavy machine guns have already entered the firing range, and even have reached the range of the ordinary rifle ruler.
The soldiers who operated the cavalry artillery turned their eyes to Zhan Wenjia, the commander-in-chief of the battle.
But Zhan Wenjia didn't think it was the best time to shoot, and didn't give any orders to shoot.
Everyone can only wait quietly.
In fact, Zhan Wenjia was very nervous, he was afraid that the Hubei army would carry out artillery bombardment first, so that the 4th and 5th Cavalry Divisions would have to engage in an artillery battle with the enemy, and the evolution of the battle would go in an unpredictable direction.
However, the cavalry of the Hubei army moved extremely quickly, and those heavy artillery and heavy machine guns were still behind, but Alekseev repeatedly pressed, and Mishuchenko could only attack before his heavy fire arrived.
The artillery and heavy machine gun improvised positions on the positions of the cavalry of the Huaxia Army were either covered by grass and leaves, or directly covered by a queue of men and horses, which made the Hubei army not see this, and thought that the Huaxia Army, like them, did not have much heavy firepower.
In the eyes of most of the Hubei cavalry, this is no different from their previous cavalry charge battles, they all rely on horsepower to charge fiercely, sabers to slash the enemy's body, but unexpectedly, the Chinese cavalry came to a fire ambush trap.
This is a typical cold-weapon war mentality, which brings great danger to the cavalry of the Hubei army.
When it came to a distance of about a kilometer, the cavalry of the Hubei army no longer moved forward, that was the range of the rifle, which was still a little different from the distance of four or five hundred meters in the era of cold weapons.
Grass-roots officers at all levels of the Hubei army commanded their subordinates to organize their formations, keep up with the brigade, and quietly look ahead, but saw that the cavalry of the Huaxia Army was still standing there motionless, and they did not even go up on horseback, as if the cavalry of the Hubei Army was transparent thousands of meters away.
This made some Hubei troops feel that they were very despised by the "yellow-skinned monkeys", and some people were about to fire when they saw the position of the Huaxia army.
Mishuchenko drew his saber from the scabbard, pointed sharply forward, and shouted: "Rush! ”
Suddenly, the cheers of "Ula" resounded through the heavens and the earth, followed by the more shocking sound of horses' hooves between heaven and earth.
Tens of thousands of cavalry of the Hubei army, led by the officers, rushed forward fiercely.
The momentum of the cavalry charge was very amazing, which made the cavalry of the Huaxia Army, who were accustomed to the cavalry formation charge training, a little commotion, but soon calmed down.
The cavalry charge, from starting the horse speed to entering the state of maximum speed, is only a short time of one or two minutes.
That is, in this minute or two, a gap can be broken through the defense of the enemy's position, and a large force of cavalry rushes into this gap, and the enemy's position will completely collapse.
This is the plan laid down by the Hubei army.
Seeing that the cavalry swarming by the Hubei army had already raised the maximum horse speed, and seeing that they had rushed within two hundred meters of their own position, Huyan Dazhu was a little anxious: "Jiajia......"
Zhan Wenjia finally waved his hand, and Chao Sky fired a red signal flare, shouting: "Start shooting!" ”
The cavalry queue covering the artillery and heavy machine guns quickly dodged away, and the forage for the concealed artillery and heavy machine guns was removed, revealing countless black holes, and the muzzles of the guns were pointed at the charging Hubei cavalry.
First of all, the heavy machine guns sprayed blazing bullets, like a series of fire whips crossed together, forming a huge fire net that enveloped the Hubei charging cavalry.
The cavalry of the Hubei army, which rushed to the front, was swept away by the sudden rain of bullets.
Before dying, many people lamented: It's over!
However, the cavalry group charged like a sea of mountains, the men and horses in front fell, and the people behind were still pushed forward by inertia, and entered the bullet fire net, and it was difficult to avoid the fire net by dodging and retreating. (To be continued.) )
