Chapter 70: Kill the Horse Pistol
The sudden sound of gunfire and explosions on the highway naturally quickly reached the ears of the Japanese infantry who followed the cavalry to advance towards Yushe. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 The commander of the Japanese infantry who was in charge of leading the team immediately gave the order to run forward.
It's just that in order to avoid eating dust behind the cavalry, they deliberately distanced themselves from the cavalry. Before they could reach the ambush site, the gunfire had already subsided, and only the intermittent gunfire continued.
'Yaga! These arrogant cavalry, tell them not to travel too far away from us, they just won't listen! ’
Complaining that these cavalry were accustomed to doing their own thing, the Japanese infantry commander also knew that this cavalry squadron was undoubtedly more important in the eyes of the garrison commander than the infantry he brought.
Thinking of the infantry commander here, he could only continue to order: "Hurry up, run!" Our cavalry must be in ambush, and we must join them as quickly as possible. Rush over as fast as you can! ”
The infantry commander who shouted these words had no time to care about the puppet army that could not outrun them. Even though most of these puppet armies came from the incorporated Jin Sui Army troops, the infantry commander still knew that the combat effectiveness of these puppet armies was very limited.
If it is the cavalry that was attacked in front, it is necessary to wait for these puppet troops to come to the rescue. By the time they arrived, they were afraid that the Eighth Route Army, which was good at fighting, had already disappeared without a trace.
In fact, when the infantry sped up and rushed to reinforcements, Zhao Tiehu, who was in charge of the palace, still stopped shooting from time to time. For these surviving cavalrymen who abandoned their horses and shot on foot, Zhao Tiehu also had no pressure to shoot them.
Looking at the surviving cavalry around him, one by one falling under the opponent's gun, Captain Inada said very angrily: "Baga! And what about our infantry? Why haven't they arrived yet? ”
While questioning the cavalry around him, Captain Inada also realized that letting the cavalry dismount and fight on foot was indeed a bit of a discarding of his strengths. But the question is, they didn't do less of this kind of thing in the past, why do they frequently eat it today?
'Squadron leader, the other party should be the sharpshooter of the Eighth Road, and his marksmanship is very good. If we continue to pursue, I am afraid that there will be warriors who will be broken. Why don't you wait for our infantry to arrive and then start a pursuit? ’
'Stupid! Didn't you see the other person running away? If we don't bite him tightly, I'm afraid that by the time the infantry arrives, the other side will have already fled. We are not familiar with the terrain here, but the other side is very familiar.
If we let him get into a ravine, and we don't know what mountain he has entered, how will we pursue him? You take a squad around the mountain and go to the back to stop these damn sneak attackers. ’
In the face of this squad leader's suggestion, Captain Inada also knew that there was some truth. But the problem is that the terrain here is very complicated, and if he doesn't bite the other party tightly, he is really worried that the other party will disappear from under his nose if he is not careful!
While sending a cavalryman to continue to urge the infantry to speed up reinforcements, even though he was distressed by the death of his subordinates, Captain Daotian still refused to let Zhao Tiehu and his party leave their line of sight. And his idea is undoubtedly in Zhao Tiehu's arms.
'Hurry up! The little devils are trying to outflank us! Go to the place where the horses are tethered, and wait for us to ride out! ’
'Yes, Captain! What a pity! If you can put away all that loot, you should be able to make a profit! ’
Listening to Tie Dan's reluctance to give up the weapons and equipment of those little devils who were killed, Zhao Tiehu could only laugh and scold: "When are you still thinking about the weapons and equipment of other little devils?" Rest assured, there will be a chance for you to clean up the battlefield in the future. ”
After urging Li Hao and Tie Dan to speed up their retreat, it didn't take long for the three of them to arrive at the place where the bolted horses were assembled. At this time, the little devil cavalry who was responsible for dismounting and pursuing also clung to Zhao Tiehu and his entourage, who were retreating.
Just when the cavalry of the little devil felt that the gun was no longer fired in front of him, and was worried about whether the other party would escape, he hurriedly accelerated his pursuit. Zhao Tiehu, who was already riding on a horse, looked at the team members around him and said, "Ride down the mountain and withdraw!" ”
With the sound of horses' hooves, the little devil who was speeding down the mountain looked at the dozen or so war horses rushing down the mountain from the forest, and immediately panicked: "Baga, they have horses!" Hurry, chase down! ”
When these chasing little devils arrived at the forest where they had been tied to their horses before, a little devil was caught off guard and tripped over the tricky thunder set by Zhao Tiehu. After the two explosions, the two little devils quickly collapsed in a pool of blood again.
Fortunately, Captain Daotian had already sent a cavalry squad to make a detour to pursue, and when Zhao Tiehu and his party rushed to the road down the mountain, the sound of the little devil's hooves was also heard behind him. The pursuing devil cavalry could see Zhao Tiehu and others on horseback at a glance.
'Yo! They turned out to be the cavalry of the Eighth Road, warriors, kill a few! Cut them down! ’
As the leader of the little devil cavalry squad led the team, after shouting the order to charge, the rest of the little devil cavalry naturally quickly whipped the war horses that straddled. It's just that in the process of pursuit, the two cavalry teams always maintained a distance of three or four hundred meters.
Although the quality of the little devil's war horse is better than that of the Eighth Route Army, the war horse that Zhao Tiehu captured from Yingziyan at the beginning was also the best to keep. Raised in the base, it also gives these war horses a rich supply of horse feed.
In a short-distance sprint, it is naturally impossible for the little devil war horse to catch up with Zhao Tiehu and his party. What's more, Zhao Tiehu, who was in charge of the palace, turned around from time to time to shoot at the little devil's cavalry.
Considering that it is a bit difficult to shoot the little devil on the horse, Zhao Tiehu also chose to shoot the man and the horse first. As long as the little devil's horse is killed or injured, the little devil sitting on the war horse will fall to death or be disabled.
In this way, the dozens of war horses that you chased and chased along the mountain road soon arrived at the canyon where Zhao Tiehu had asked Liu Cheng to ambush before. When Zhao Tiehu and his entourage rode into the canyon, the little devil who followed behind them still refused to stop pursuing.
Even if there is a cavalry with little devils, he said in a timely manner: "Second lieutenant, the front is already a canyon area, do you want to continue the pursuit?" ”
'Go on!' Bite them tight, and you must not let them escape. Even if there is an ambush, as long as we hold out for a while, the captain will definitely come with troops to reinforce us. When the time comes, we will be able to counter-encircle it. ’
In the opinion of the cavalry squad leader, if the terrain of the canyon is too dangerous, he should order the troops to stop the pursuit. Then when Captain Inada asked, I was afraid that he would not be able to explain to the other party at all.
As for whether there was an ambush in the canyon, the Japanese squad leader could only choose to gamble. After all, he finally bit the other party, how could he let the other party escape easily? He believed that if he continued to chase, it must be their war horse endurance that was superior!
Listening to the sound of horses' hooves coming from the entrance, Liu Cheng, who was waiting to be ambushed in the canyon, said with the same shock: "All pay attention, prepare for battle!" Don't shoot without my orders! Get ready! ”
After Liu Cheng gave the order to prepare for battle, the soldiers of the detachment who were ambushed on both sides of the canyon soon saw Zhao Tiehu and his party riding quickly in the canyon passage. Of course, there are also the little devil cavalry who bite in the back and stick to it.
Just as Zhao Tiehu and his entourage flashed from the ambush circle, Liu Cheng, who was personally in charge of a heavy machine gun, didn't consider whether there were little devil infantry behind him, and aimed his gun at these little devil cavalrymen who were in rapid pursuit.
'Hit! ’
The crossfire network constructed by two heavy machine guns, one left and one right, directly shrouded the small devil cavalry that was rapidly pursuing them, and directly shrouded in the strike range of the bullet fire network. At the same time, the rest of the fighters in ambush also quickly opened fire.
Zhao Tiehu and the others, who were still desperately retreating before, heard the gunshots coming from behind them, and immediately choked their horses and said: "Phew! ”
One by one, the horses that were already running and panting quickly neighed and stopped running. Just waiting for the war horse to stop advancing, Zhao Tiehu had already turned over and dismounted and said, "Tiedan, give me the machine gun!" ”
'Yes, Captain! Is it a return to the carbine? ’
Such a great opportunity, naturally, cannot be missed. These damn little devils, if we don't clean up, we can't retreat safely. Leave one group to lead the horses to the other side of the canyon, and the rest fight back with me! ’
'Yes, Captain! ’
These members of the commando team with Zhao Tiehu were also very happy when they heard that they were going to launch a counterattack. After running such a long way, I believe that if the little devil's reinforcements want to rush over, it will take at least a short time.
There was such a long time, which was enough for them to completely annihilate the pursuing Japanese cavalry squad, and even clean up the battlefield. Thinking of this, these team members naturally felt excited, and finally had a chance to capture the loot.
The most important thing is that they hope to capture a few little devils' military horses, so that in the future, their entire detachment may be able to have a war horse for each person to travel. When they thought of this possibility, they were naturally excited!
And the Japanese cavalry squad that was pursuing at this moment, because the pursuit was too tight and fast, simply crashed into the ambush circle set by Liu Cheng. Many cavalrymen wanted to stop the horses they straddled, but they found that the horses that ran up couldn't stop at all.
As a result, they could only watch as one cavalry after another fell under the guns of the other side. Such a scene made many cavalrymen even sad at the moment of death: "This is simply a massacre!" ”
