Chapter 812: Violent Cavalry
Huo Xiaoshan didn't recognize these dozen or so soldiers, but these soldiers knew Huo Xiaoshan, and it turned out that they were all Wei Jianxing's subordinates.
It's quite interesting to say how they fought with the Japanese army.
As soon as the Japanese army pursued, Wei Jianxing's regiment also chased out, but Wei Jianxing himself did not lead the team.
Originally, they received a notice from the division commander Fang Wenjue that they could change their guards tomorrow and go down to rest, but they suffered so many casualties at once, but they had a grudge against the devil.
The soldier asked Wei Jianxing to fight, but he told the only surviving battalion commander who led the team that he would run back if he took advantage of it, and there would be no more casualties, because less than one-third of our 30th regiment now has combat effectiveness.
However, these ten soldiers came from the rear to deliver food to the Wei Jianxing regiment, five cooks, and five escorts with guns.
When they arrived at the position, they all went to chase the devil when they saw that there were no people, and with Wei Jianxing's consent, the ten of them also chased them out from behind.
It's just that he didn't think about it, but he ran to the front of the fork in the road, and when he turned the dirt bag more than ten meters high, he collided with the scout who was in charge of the Japanese army's guard.
If it weren't for Huo Xiaoshan hearing the shouts of the fight and appearing in time, these ten people would not be able to go back, because there were many Japanese soldiers, and five of them had no weapons, only a kitchen knife and a flat shoulder for picking rice cones.
Of course, the dozen or so Japanese soldiers probably had to be knocked down by half of them, because don't underestimate these five cooks, these cooks are all veterans of a hundred battles.
These five veterans are all over 40 years old, they are all desolate and homeless, or they have left home at a young age and have nothing to do, they are only a big-headed soldier and have no shame to return to their hometowns to see people, so they voluntarily stay in the team and become professional soldiers.
If the Chinese soldiers are not student soldiers, most of them are under the age of 20, and if you think about the qualifications of people who have been in the army for more than 20 years, they naturally refuse to go to the front and charge into battle to be bound by the discipline of that unit.
Therefore, they only take care of the other soldiers' three meals a day, and the rest of the time after the three meals is their own, no one cares about them, and officers at all levels do not bother to ask.
Of course, they have experienced a lot of things and will not do anything out of the ordinary, they just take the troops as their home.
Just as Huo Xiaoshan was talking to these ten soldiers, the large troops of the 30th Regiment rushed over, they were not as close as the Japanese army, but the Japanese army unfortunately sent reinforcements and bumped into the battalion directly under them.
Seeing the corpses and trophies in that place, Huo Xiaoshan only left some grenades, and the rest was transported back by the 30th regiment.
Moreover, he also asked the soldiers to pass a message to Wei Jianxing saying that these trophies were captured by their 30th regiment.
The soldiers of the 30th Regiment first refused, and Huo Xiaoshan said, what is said to be yours is yours, and told you that Regiment Commander Wei will strive to make the official bigger, and he can bring more people to fight devils in the future.
These things were handled neatly, and Huo Xiaoshan led the troops to move forward again.
This time, Huo Xiaoshan still stayed with Shen Chong and their top soldiers, and did not lead the team in the back, the main reason here was that Huo Xiaoshan remembered that the mysterious and powerful squad of the Japanese army came.
Last time, they shot down a plane, and now they don't know what kind of great person the pilot who fell to his death was, which provoked the Japanese army to chase after him.
Huo Xiaoshan was still jealous of this group of Japanese soldiers of unknown origin, he was afraid that his people would suffer, so he walked in front.
This time, the speed of the direct battalion was not fast, and they only listened to the gunfire in front of them.
After these days of fighting, the people in the battalion were already a little tired, and Huo Xiaoshan's thoughts at this time were actually the same as Wei Jianxing's, that is, to follow the Japanese army behind the Japanese army to add to the blockage of the retreating Japanese army.
Huo Xiaoshan even sometimes climbed to the commanding heights in the distance to observe with a telescope when other troops were fighting with the Japanese army, and he had to admit that the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army was indeed stronger than that of the Chinese troops.
Even when the Japanese army began to run out of ammunition, they retreated in an orderly manner, fighting in a very orderly manner, although the national army had many troops, it was like a hunting dog that watched the house, and although the Japanese army was small and retreating, it was like a fierce hungry wolf.
Wherever the hungry wolf opened his bloody jaw, the hound had to retreat after resisting for a while.
Although this metaphor is not very popular, but in fact it is really like this, admitting that the facts are not enough to be able to develop strengths and avoid weaknesses, Huo Xiaoshan has never been the person who deceives himself.
In the course of this march, the battalion under its direct command would inevitably meet with other Nationalist troops pursuing the Japanese army, and after explaining their own situation, they would only go their own way.
However, two days later, Huo Xiaoshan, who had already crossed the Laodao River, was hiding on a high post with the officers and soldiers of his direct battalion and another national army unit.
Seven or eight hundred meters ahead, there was a burst of guns and artillery, but it was the national army and the Japanese army covering the retreat that fought together.
The reason why Huo Xiaoshan was with this officer was because he knew him, Huo Xiaoshan did him a small favor when this officer went to the theater headquarters, and the soldiers of the national army fighting in front were the subordinates of this officer.
"The combat power of the Japanese army is indeed not to be underestimated!" The officer sighed as he watched the battle through his binoculars.
Huo Xiaoshan acquiesced, and at this time he was also looking with a telescope, it was obvious that the Japanese army's marksmanship was better than that of the national army, and there were already dozens of national soldiers who were shot and fell to the ground.
But at this moment, Huo Xiaoshan suddenly found something in the telescope, and when he looked at it, he shouted: "Devil cavalry!" Hurry up with heavy machine guns and cold gunners! ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw that a Japanese cavalry lined up in front of me and rushed towards this side, although the Chinese army knocked down more than a dozen horses with machine guns, but immediately saw that there were several smoke and dust after the grenade explosion rose on the front line of the national army, obviously the machine gun of the national army had been knocked out by the grenadiers of the Japanese army, and the Japanese army was definitely prepared!
The Japanese soldiers on their horses had rushed up, and the attacking soldiers of the Nationalist Army saw that they were not good, and quickly scattered and fled.
Except for Huo Xiaoshan, the commanding heights they are hiding in now are relatively gentle, which is conducive to the impact of the Japanese cavalry.
Although the Japanese army organized the retreat very tightly, the Chinese army relied on the strength of the number of people to attack day and night, and the Japanese army must have been annoyed by the beating, so they took advantage of the calm terrain to send out the cavalry, trying to drive the Chinese army, which was always following behind, farther away.
The infantry is most afraid of cavalry in flat places, mainly because there are too few automatic weapons, and the rifles have no time to shoot the cavalry, and the cavalry and horses have arrived.
Huo Xiaoshan and the others were only seven or eight hundred meters away from the battlefield in front of them at this time, and the Japanese army's war horses rushed to a distance of about four hundred meters as soon as they were happy, and in the blink of an eye, they had already broken through the attack line of the national army.
At this time, seeing that the Japanese cavalry had already gathered the reins and slowed down their speed, they were planning to turn around and chop again to retreat! The cold-gun mobile gunners of this Kung Fu battalion are all up.
"Rifle!" As soon as Huo Xiaoshan stretched out his hand, a soldier handed over a sniper rifle.
"Hit!" Huo Xiaoshan shouted, and he began to aim and shoot, and at this time, the rifles of the cold gunners had already sounded, and he saw that a dozen or so Japanese cavalrymen who were wielding knives to chase and slash the infantry of the national army fell under their horses.
The Japanese cavalry thought that they had broken through the defense line of the national army, but they never thought that there were still Chinese troops in the rear.
This time, however, they did not dare to rush again, so they turned around and ran back at the commander's call.
But in this short period of time, I saw that under the fire of the cold gunners of the battalion directly under the fire, the war horses fell one by one, and the Japanese cavalry above fell down as if they were dumplings in the pot.
The Japanese commander could only order the cavalry to withdraw, and he naturally saw that the shooting was from the commanding heights in front, and the war horses could not rush up, and there were machine guns on it, so wouldn't his own cavalry make the Chinese army all break through?
They were cavalry, and as soon as they turned around and ran, the scattered Nationalist soldiers certainly shot them in the back, but at this time, the two heavy machine guns of the battalion directly under the high post were of use.
Hanzi they didn't dare to fight at first because the Japanese cavalry and the national infantry were mixed together, and at this time, the Japanese cavalry ran back and distanced themselves from the Chinese army.
This is absolutely ruthless enough, the Japanese cavalry who was captured by the anti-aircraft machine gun and entered the barrage did not know how many bullets they had received at that moment, and the Japanese cavalry, which was originally yellow, was swept out of a passage where there was no standing horse in the trajectory of the heavy machine gun!
