Chapter 763: The puppet army didn't succeed
Guo Dehui is an old treacherous and cunning, and he has a clear understanding of the troops of the Eighth Route Army that entered Linzhang County.
When he learned that the troops of the Eighth Route Army that entered Linzhang County were Sun Weiguo's troops, Guo Dehui felt a sense of fear in his heart.
It can be described as the name of the shadow man of the tree, and the name Sun Weiguo is not unfamiliar to everyone in Hebei Province and Shanxi Province.
Especially these Japanese puppet army and bandit troops, they are very clear about the name Sun Weiguo, and they know how strong Sun Weiguo's command ability is.
Sun Weiguo's troops are afraid of even the little devils, let alone these puppet army bandits.
"Are we just waiting for the Eighth Route Army troops to enter Huilong Town, and then cut off our heads? You have to think clearly, if we fall into the hands of the Eighth Route Army, do you think we will have a way to live? Brother Guo, the family property that we have accumulated all our lives is afraid that it will fall into the hands of the Eighth Route Army. ”
After Cheng Ximeng heard Guo Dehui's words, he showed a somewhat shocked expression on his face, he didn't expect Guo Dehui to have such an idea, he immediately said.
Guo Dehui fell into deep thought, his brows furrowed tightly, and he didn't speak for a while.
The two men began to fall silent again, neither of them speaking.
Dealing with the troops of the Eighth Route Army, especially the troops of the Eighth Route Army against Sun Weiguo, this made Guo Dehui have no confidence in his heart, even if it was Cheng Wenxuan, who was very strong on the surface, he knew that Sun Weiguo's Eighth Route Army troops were not easy to deal with.
But they were reluctant to let them surrender, especially when they thought that their accumulated family property would fall into the hands of the Eighth Route Army, they would not agree.
Cheng Ximeng and Guo Dehui can be said to be the two emperors of Linzhang County, they control most of the bandits, and they have looted a lot of property.
There are a lot of these possessions, and even if they lose them to many of them, they still have to keep their property.
"Big boss, it's not good, the Eighth Route Army is here, more than a hundred cavalry are outside the town, they seem to be rushing to the town."
While Cheng Ximeng and Guo Dehui were silent, a man hurriedly ran in and said.
After hearing the man's words, Cheng Ximeng and Guo Dehui immediately stood up, and their eyes looked at the man.
"Do they only have a hundred cavalry? The rest of the centaurs? Didn't they report that they had more than a thousand cavalry? ”
Guo Dehui looked at the man, and he asked anxiously.
"They're going to attack, how many heavy weapons these cavalry are carrying?" Cheng Ximeng also hurriedly asked.
"This Eighth Route Army only has more than 100 cavalry, and no other troops have been found for the time being, the big boss, now we also have more than 200 cavalry in the town, it is better to let the cavalry go out, and kill these more than 100 cavalry first, if we can eat this cavalry, our morale will definitely be greatly boosted, and the Japanese will also reward us."
The man looked at Cheng Ximeng, and he couldn't wait to say.
There were more than 200 horse bandits in Huilong Town, and these horse bandits also accepted the adaptation of the Japanese, who gave them the establishment of a cavalry battalion.
More than 200 horse bandits are Cheng Ximeng's trump card, and this force has good combat effectiveness.
"There are more than 1,000 cavalry on the Eighth Route Army, and the appearance of more than 100 cavalry must be bait, we must not go out to send them to death, tell the brothers, keep me on the position, as long as the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army enters the firing range, immediately launch a fire strike." Cheng Ximeng immediately gave an order and said.
Huilong Town has more than 1,000 infantry of Cheng Ximeng and Guo Dehui, more than 200 cavalry, and an artillery unit.
The number of this puppet army is not large, there are only more than 1,000 people, and their number is comparable to the number of cavalry battalions of the Sixth Army Division, but this puppet army is the elite of Cheng Ximeng and Guo Dehui, and they have a certain combat effectiveness.
Cheng Ximeng saw through at a glance that the more than 100 cavalry of the cavalry battalion was just a decoy, and if he sent troops to attack, he would definitely be hit, so Cheng Ximeng gave the order to garrison the position.
This order to stay in the position was also agreed by Guo Dehui, and more than a thousand puppet troops began to stay in the position, and they did not attack.
"Boom, boom!" The first company of the cavalry battalion, under the command of the company commander Chen Zhongju, began to quickly launch an attack on the town of Huilong, and their task was to attract the puppet army to attack.
But the first company of cavalry waited not for the puppet army to attack, but for the shells fired by the puppet army.
SHELLS CAME AT THE CAVALRY UNITS, AND SIX 82MM MORTARS BEGAN TO FIRE AT THE CAVALRY UNITS.
Cheng Ximeng and Guo Dehui were supported by six mortars, and the six mortars began to fire under the control of the bandits.
Shells began to explode around the cavalry, but fortunately, the bandits' shooting skills were very poor, and the explosion of six shells only caused more than a dozen casualties to the cavalry.
Ge Haifeng, who was watching the battle with a telescope in the back, saw this scene, his brows furrowed tightly, and he immediately gave the order to counterattack.
THE FOUR 75MM CAVALRY FIELD GUNS OF THE MACHINE GUN COMPANY BEGAN TO COUNTERATTACK, AND ONE SHELL AFTER ANOTHER FIRED AT THE MORTARS IN THE TOWN.
The troops of Chen Zhongju's first company continued to march forward, but more than 100 cavalry pulled out a long offensive distance, and the cavalry advanced towards Huilong Town.
"Bang bang."
"Da Da Da!"
Rifles, light and heavy machine guns began to fire under the control of the bandits, and bullets were fired directly at the cavalry.
The bandits began to launch a fire attack, but they exposed all the fire points.
"The fire on the left side was relatively weak, the artillery of the concentrated machine gun company and light and heavy machine guns fired fiercely on the left side, the second company of the cavalry, the third company of the cavalry immediately launched a fierce attack, opening a gap from the left side, the first company of the cavalry, the fourth company of the cavalry carried out a diversionary attack, and the fifth company of the cavalry served as a reserve."
The bandits in Huilong began to fire heavily, and their firing points were completely exposed.
After Ge Haifeng observed for a while, he immediately began to give orders.
THE FOUR 75MM CAVALRY FIELD GUNS, FOUR 82MM MORTARS, FOUR INFANTRY GUNS, AND FOUR 20MM MACHINE GUNS OF THE MACHINE GUN COMPANY BEGAN TO FIRE AT THE SAME TIME, AND TWENTY CZECH LIGHT MACHINE GUNS, CARRIED BY THE SHOOTER AND THE SECONDARY SHOOTER, IMMEDIATELY ADVANCED TO THE FRONT, AND THEY WANTED TO SUPPRESS THE BANDITS' FIRE AT CLOSE RANGE.
Eight Type 92 heavy machine guns had already begun to fire at the bandits, one bullet after another.
"What's the matter, why is the fire of the Eighth Road coming towards us."
On the left side of the position in Huilong Town, a puppet battalion commander shouted loudly, and he held a telescope and looked towards the position on the right.
Seeing that the position on the right was not hit by the artillery of the Eighth Route Army, the battalion commander's face became extremely annoyed.
"Battalion commander, are this Cheng Ximeng's people colluding with the Eighth Route Army, why is the Eighth Route Army fighting on our side." A puppet soldier asked with a puzzled face.
