Chapter 400: Raid on Vladivostok Four

Dashanyan judged that the Pacific Fleet of the Hubei Army might have been defeated by the Huaxia Army, and hurriedly ordered the Japanese army to leave the city of Vladivostok as soon as possible, but it was already too late.

At this time, it was already completely dawn, and the Japanese army in the city was running at this time, just exposed to the artillery fire of the Huaxia army.

The muzzles of thousands of guns were pointed at the Japanese army, and a dense storm of death was sprayed, sweeping through the Japanese army's action team.

The Japanese army had to hide in nearby houses, but the artillery fire of the Huaxia army completely covered those houses one after another.

Everywhere the Japanese army went, it was death in addition to death.

When Ottebarov heard that the Japanese army was retreating from the city to the outside of the city, he was furious and ordered the defenders to use artillery and heavy machine guns to block and shoot at the Japanese army.

As a result, the Japanese army was flanked by the Hubei army and the Huaxia army, suffered heavy casualties, and did not hesitate to counterattack.

Most of the weapons of the Japanese army were old weapons received from the arsenal of the Hubei army, and the rate of fire was slow and the firing range was short, so it was impossible to shoot at the Huaxia army and fleet occupying the fort wharf, but it posed a great threat to the Hubei army in the city of Vladivostok.

The battle between the Japanese and the Hubei soon spread from inside the city to outside the city.

The Japanese army outside the city had a large number of troops but very few weapons, while the Hubei army had very few troops but had a well-established group of forts.

As soon as the news of the battle between the two sides in the city came out, the Hubei army did not hesitate to use the large and small artillery and heavy machine guns on the batteries to strafe the Japanese crowd.

The little infantry weapons of the Japanese army can only be used for individual self-defense, where can they deal with the artillery and machine gun fire of the Hubei army in a strong defensive position?

After a while, the corpses of the Japanese army outside the city were also scattered all over the field, and the blood flowed like a river.

The fighting behavior between the Japanese army and the Hubei army will naturally fall into the eyes of the Huaxia army.

When Hu Zhen learned of the news, he immediately ordered: "Seize the opportunity to attack the remnants of the battery in Vladivostok, and let the cavalry of the fourth echelon be dispatched to outflank the Japanese army and the Hubei army, and bring them to a pot of stew!" ”

In addition to the first three echelons of the Chinese army landing in Vladivostok, which were all infantry, a fourth echelon was also transported by ship, which was more than 20,000 horses from two cavalry divisions.

The establishment of this cavalry division consists of three cavalry regiments, one cavalry artillery regiment, baggage battalion, engineer battalion, and special combat team, with a total of more than 10,000 troops and more than 10,000 war horses.

Originally, in the Nanyang era, the Huaxia Army was active in the area near the southern equator, and it was difficult to have the conditions for establishing cavalry troops, but later, with the invention and mass production of automobiles, according to Hu Zhen's idea, the Huaxia Army would directly enter the era of mechanization, using armored tanks and automobiles as the power to transport troops, and no longer establish cavalry units powered by livestock.

However, after entering the Chinese mainland, most of the vast territory did not have roads for automobiles, and the production capacity of automobiles and armored tanks was insufficient, and the development of petrochemical industry also restricted the development of military mechanization.

Under these circumstances, Hu Zhen agreed to establish twenty cavalry divisions to be used for rapid mobile operations before large-scale mechanization, which were assigned to three theaters:

100,000 horses and horses of the 10 cavalry divisions of the Northwest Theater, 60,000 horses of the six cavalry divisions of the Northern Theater, and 40,000 horses of the four cavalry divisions of the Northeast Theater.

At present, the Northern Theater and the Northeast Theater each have a cavalry division, which will be used in the Vladivostok battlefield this time, in order to quickly seize Vladivostok and lay the foundation for victory in the Northeast Theater.

The commanders of the two cavalry divisions were Zhan Wenjia and Huyan Dazhu, who were veterans of the Nanyang era of the Chinese Army, both from the north, because of their courage and wit in combat and familiarity with horsemanship, they were appointed as the commanders of the Fourth Cavalry Division and the Fifth Cavalry Division respectively.

When they landed at the dock, the two of them kept urging the ships they were carrying to land and land as soon as possible so that they could participate in the battle, which caused a little chaos in the order of the transport fleet.

This is a large-scale battle of sea and land coordination, during which the command coordination is very complicated and arduous for outsiders, Zhan Wenjia and Huyan Dazhu both want their cavalry division to land first in the fourth echelon, where can they be allowed to come nonsense.

Under the orders of the Vladivostok Operational Command, the two coaxing cavalry division commanders obediently landed smoothly in accordance with the order of the landing, causing the two division commanders to have a bitter gourd face and eager to jump into the sea on horseback and rush ashore.

But as soon as he landed on land, Huyan Dazhu, the commander of the Fifth Independent Cavalry Division, became alive and shouted at his subordinates: "Hurry up and get on horseback and rush to kill those old hairy people!" ”

"Brothers, follow me and rush to kill the enemy!" Zhan Wenjia, the commander of the Fourth Cavalry Division, was not to be outdone, roared, and took the lead in turning over his horse, whipping his horse fiercely, and running forward.

"Rush!" The soldiers of the 4th Cavalry Division followed the commander and galloped inland from the edge of the dock with a small shout.

"This calf dares to demonstrate in front of Lao Tzu!" Huyan Dazhu snorted and also gave an order: "When will our Fifth Cavalry Division fall behind?" Now everyone come with me, rush! ”

When the cavalry of the two cavalry divisions charged, the huge number of men and horses occupied a very large area, and the hooves of the horses knocked on the ground and trembled, rolling up a huge amount of dust, which from a distance was even more magnificent than the momentum of ten infantry divisions charging at the same time.

According to the combat mission, two cavalry divisions swept through the city of Vladivostok, outflanked the perimeter of Vladivostok, and covered the flank security of the infantry.

Because the cable telegraph to the outside world was cut off, the Far Eastern Front of the Hubei Army at this time had not yet learned of the news that Vladivostok was raided by the Chinese army, and there were no reinforcements to rescue Vladivostok, so the combat target of the cavalry division was aimed at the Japanese army on the periphery of Vladivostok.

At this moment, the Japanese army, which did not have many weapons in their hands, was miserable.

In order to give full play to the advantages of fast mobility of the cavalry, Hu Zhen personally selected individual weapons for the cavalry, and each person was equipped with a Zhenhua submachine gun (an AK submachine gun copied from another time and space), a saber, a self-defense pistol, and six to twelve grenades.

Since the individual armament of the cavalry of the Huaxia Army was completely different from that of the cavalry of other eras, it was certainly different in tactics.

When the cavalry charges the enemy into range, they first shoot the enemy group with their submachine guns, and then use their sabers to slash at the enemy.

Although the commanders of the two cavalry divisions were unruly and unruly, they were completely strict in accordance with the cavalry code in their actions against these Japanese armies, which the emperor hated.

At this time, not to mention that the Chinese cavalry had powerful cavalry submachine guns, even if they used sabers to rush into the crowd of the Japanese army, they could also have a shocking massacre.

The attack of the two cavalry divisions on the Japanese army was a one-sided massacre.

Dense bullets swept through, sabers glistened coldly, and almost unarmed Japanese soldiers fell in pieces.

At this time, Oyama Iwa and Sakuma Zuo Ma Tai were commanding the remnants of the Japanese army in the city of Vladivostok to rush out under the heavy artillery fire of the Hubei army and the Huaxia army, and collided head-on with the two Chinese cavalry divisions. (To be continued.) )
