Chapter Seventy-One: A Slap to the Head!

Although the little devil cavalry was worried before chasing into the canyon, when the machine gun roared, all the devil cavalry knew that they were in danger this time. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info did not wait for them to show the majesty of the cavalry, and they wanted to leave their lives in the canyon forever.

As Zhao Tiehu led people to kill a horse pistol, the little devil cavalry who was frantically slaughtered by Liu Cheng and others himself. It didn't take long for them all to fall in the canyon, leaving only some surviving horses to mourn.

'Clean up the battlefield, don't let go of a live little devil, these surviving horses will be taken away immediately. As for these dead war horses, forget it, I'm afraid we won't have time to drag them away. Hurry, it is estimated that the little devil's reinforcements are coming soon. ’

Seeing that the battle was over, Zhao Tiehu wanted to take these horse corpses with him. But he also knew that the main force of the little devils not far away, if they heard the gunfire coming from this side of the canyon, they would inevitably rush to reinforcements.

If you don't hurry up and retreat, it is estimated that it is really possible to be bitten by the little devil again. At that time, it is estimated that they will also pay a lot of price. And now, more than half of the little devil cavalry has been annihilated, and not a single soldier of the combat detachment has been lost.

Liu Cheng, who ran down from the ambush point in the canyon, said excitedly: "Captain, this battle is so cool!" ”

Regarding Liu Cheng's excitement, Zhao Tiehu said very seriously: "Don't be happy! This is just the beginning, and the real battle will follow. Remember, pack up everything you can use and take it away, and leave the rest of the carcass and horse carcass here.

Later, a few soldiers were sent to send the captured horses and supplies to the battalion headquarters. In addition, the battalion commander was informed that most of the cavalry squadron of the little devils had been killed by us, so that they could rest assured that the little devil cavalry had sneak attacked. ”

'Yes, Captain! ’

Even if Zhao Tiehu wanted to keep these captured war horses, he also knew that these war horses still needed to be trained and run in for a period of time. But now, they need to change places every day, and there is no time for them to get used to the horses.

Thinking that the next battalion headquarters operation would also need some mobile forces, Zhao Tiehu felt that handing over these captured warhorses would also allow the battalion headquarters to have an additional mobile detachment. As for these weapons, sending them to the battalion headquarters will have some effect after all.

In addition to keeping the captured Japanese grenades, the rest of the weapons and ammunition, Zhao Tiehu felt that they were still sent to the battalion headquarters. Next, the battalion headquarters must prepare for a counter-sweep, believing that the more weapons and ammunition, the better.

When Liu Cheng commanded everyone to clean up the battlefield, Zhao Tiehu took Li Hao, Tie Dan and others along the mountain road into the canyon, and began to arrange tripping thunder in the middle and on both sides of the road, hoping to delay the time for the little devil to pursue.

The captured little devil grenades were basically prepared for Zhao Tiehu. And if you want to lay a trick mine, the grenade that the little devil has to knock before the explosion is naturally not suitable.

On the contrary, the wooden handle grenade of the Eighth Route Army, as long as a string is tied to the two grenade leads, after someone triggers it, it can explode in a few seconds. Although the power is not very good, it can still kill and injure a few people.

When Zhao Tiehu and his entourage quickly cleaned up the battlefield and prepared to retreat, Captain Daotian, who learned that the cavalry squad had caught up, was also worried about the safety of the cavalry squad. After gathering some of the surviving cavalry, they followed the trail.

Just for the sake of safety, during this pursuit, Captain Inada still asked the infantry to send a squadron to accompany him. When he heard the fierce gunfire coming from this side of the canyon, he immediately realized that his cavalry squad should be under attack.

'Quick! Speed up! Our squad should be engaged in a battle with the enemy's forces! ’

understands that a cavalry squad will really encounter an ambush by a large force of the Eighth Route Army, and it is estimated that it will not last long. For this reason, Captain Inada urged his cavalry to speed up, and also ordered the Japanese infantry squadron to speed up.

But before they could reach the place where the gunfire rang out, the fierce and brief gunfire had subsided. Hearing that the gunfire had subsided, Captain Inada said in a dark heart: "Na! How is it possible to end the fight so quickly? ”

I didn't want to think about the bad guess in my heart, but Captain Inada knew in my heart that the cavalry team was only afraid of encountering accidents!

Just arrived in the territory of Yushe, he didn't even enter Yushe City, and the cavalry squadron he brought was almost completely wiped out. There was less than a squad of cavalry left to follow him, filling Captain Inada's heart with anger and sadness.

Wait until a small detachment of Japanese cavalry finally rode to the entrance of the canyon. Looking at the horseshoe prints stretching into the canyon, the cavalry led by him thought for a while and said: "Dismount, search on foot, pay attention to the slopes on both sides, and be careful of sneak attacks!" ”

'Hey! ’

The little devil cavalry who escaped a catastrophe and survived fortunately no longer has the arrogant and confident illusions when they came. It can be said that the Eighth Route Army gave them a head-on blow this time, but I am afraid that they will never forget it for the rest of their lives.

Wait until these little devil cavalry cautiously explore the canyon. The little devil cavalry who walked in the front quickly triggered the treacherous thunder array set up by Zhao Tiehu. In a short time, two explosions rang out in the canyon.

Captain Inada, who finally arrived with the infantry, listened to the explosion in the canyon, and waved his hand without saying a word: "Attack!" ”

The leader of the Japanese infantry squadron who led the team originally wanted to dissuade him. Seeing Captain Inada's anxious expression, he didn't say anything in the end, and ordered his infantry to speed up and advance in battle formation into the canyon.

When these infantry entered the canyon and looked at the cavalry standing in front of a pile of horse corpses and human corpses, their eyes were red, they also knew that this was not a pleasant taste. After all, most of these cavalrymen were alive and well earlier, and they all turned into corpses in the blink of an eye.

The canyon has been searched around and it has been found that the Eighth Route Army, which had previously sneaked up, had withdrawn from the canyon. Even the leader of the cavalry detachment wanted to send troops to pursue, but he was also worried that he would die on the way to pursue like these dead cavalrymen.

'Your Excellency, Second Lieutenant Murayama and the entire squad of warriors are all shattered! This is the body of Second Lieutenant Murayama, these damn eight roads, they have been stripped of all their clothes. What a great insult to us! ’

Some of the surviving cavalrymen wept and cried to the rice field captain, who was also covered with black faces. For these cavalrymen, they are indeed a little unacceptable to the head of the Eighth Route Army today.

On the other hand, Captain Inada at this moment, even if he was sad in his heart, he also wanted to cry, but he said in a cold tone: "What about those eight roads? ”

'Ran from behind this ravine!' Judging from the footprints left by the other party's retreat, they were afraid that they had not walked for too long. It's just that the further you go inside, the more complicated the terrain becomes. To be on the safe side, I eventually ordered the pursuit to be stopped. ’

As the squad leader finished speaking, Captain Inada slapped the squad leader with a hideous backhand and reprimanded: "Baga! You're a coward, how can you let them run. We want to take revenge, and those sneak attacks must die! ”

It seemed that he could not tolerate the cowardly attitude of the squad, and Captain Inada looked very angry. But after the slap, the squad that didn't dare to have any intention of resisting after being slapped also knew that the most uncomfortable person should still be Captain Inada.

And at this moment, the leader of the infantry squadron who was in charge of searching in the canyon also said with a solemn expression: "Captain Inada, the other party should have been lurking here for a while. I took a look just now, and the other side's hidden trenches should have been built a long time ago.

Now that Tubalu has gone into the mountains again, should we continue to advance towards Yushe, or will we start a pursuit? If we were to pursue it, we would not be able to follow it to the city. What does the captain think he should do next? ”

The previous scene of the cavalry squad leader being slapped by the infantry squadron leader was also witnessed by himself. At this time, he didn't dare to say anything about going back to the city first and waiting for the large army to gather before retaliating.

Since Captain Inada is the supreme commander at the moment, the right to fight next is still handed over to Captain Inada. If they continue to pursue and suffer casualties, then the responsibility will naturally be Captain Inada's.

Facing the instructions of the infantry squadron leader, Captain Inada looked at the undulating mountain line in the distance, and also knew that if he continued to pursue, he might not be able to catch up with the Eighth Route Army, which was familiar with the terrain.

But if he retreats like this, how unwilling he is!

Just when Captain Inada was in a dilemma, the leader of the cavalry detachment, who had been slapped in the face, spoke again: "Captain, the terrain here is not suitable for our cavalry to attack at all. And the terrain here, we are not familiar with at all.

If we want to avenge Second Lieutenant Murayama and them, we should first go to the city to meet the local garrison, and then let them send a guide, and we will definitely be able to find these dirt roads that attacked us. These dirt roads must not be able to run! ”

As a subordinate of the fallen lieutenant of Yamamura, this squad leader really wants revenge. But he also understood that the current cavalry squadron was not fit to fight again. If the pursuit continues, I am afraid that the remaining cavalry may be able to ride in.

Since they came to Yushe this time, they were cooperating with the local garrison to sweep the Eighth Route Army. Then next, they will naturally have the opportunity to confront the Eighth Route Army head-on, and wouldn't it be a wiser choice to seek revenge from the Eighth Route Army at that time?
