Chapter 156: Pyrrhic Victory! The first battle of the Flying Eagle!
On the position of the First Brigade, more than 2,000 cavalry and 2,000 infantry were all ready, and Zhang Mingyu came to the front of the position surrounded by several guards.
When Niu Tiangui saw Zhang Mingyu coming out, he immediately stood up and said: "Military seat, the two thousand and sixty-eight people of the First Brigade are ready for battle, please instruct!" β
Ma Liqun also led his war horse and said loudly: "The two thousand three hundred cavalry of the cavalry regiment are also all ready for battle, please instruct!" β
"Good!" Zhang Mingyu nodded and said: "Brothers, the time for the decisive battle has come, I believe that my soldiers are the best soldiers in the world, and now the brothers of the first, second, and fourth divisions have already fought with the little devils, I orderΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"
All the warriors straightened up and looked at Zhang Mingyu, who saw the desire to fight in their eyes, just like a bloodthirsty wolf smelling blood.
Zhang Mingyu paused and said, "Niu Tiangui! β
"In!" Niu Tiangui immediately stepped forward and said.
"Order you to take all the infantry to garrison in place to prevent the Yue army from sneaking across the Yellow River to attack my base area!" Zhang Mingyu said solemnly.
Niu Tiangui happily received the order and said: "Don't worry, the little devil dares to come, and he will not return!" β
Zhang Mingyu nodded, and then shouted to the cavalry regiment: "Ma Liqun! β
"Yes!" Ma Liqun took the war horse and took a step forward and responded loudly.
"The cavalry regiment will attack with me!" Zhang Mingyu took a white war horse from a soldier and said, "Get on the horse!" "Anyway, turn over and get on your horse.
In the blink of an eye, more than 2,000 cavalrymen turned around and mounted their horses, Zhang Mingyu turned his horse's head, and then slowly pulled out his sabre that was braving the cold, and the snow-white blade exuded a trace of gloomy aura in the night light.
More than 2,000 cavalry soldiers followed and drew their sabers, and suddenly a forest of knives appeared, and a murderous aura spread.
Zhang Mingyu raised the saber in his hand, and then said sharply with a hideous face: "Cavalry regiment!" Offensive! After speaking, his legs clamped the horse's belly, and the war horse was in pain, and immediately let go of his four hooves and galloped forward.
The 2,000 cavalry soldiers behind him shouted and killed the sky, and the horses followed, and more than 2,000 cavalry rushed towards the east bank of the Yellow River like a whirlwind.
About half an hour later, Zhang Mingyu rushed to the east bank of the Yellow River with the cavalry regiment, and there were shouts of killing everywhere in front of him, and soldiers were fighting with devils everywhere.
Zhang Mingyu waved his saber: "Kill me!" β
More than 2,000 cavalrymen roared angrily and instigated their horses to enter the battle group, and along the way, the cavalry kept waving their sabers, and the heads and stumps of devils kept flying into the air.
Soon the cavalry regiment was able to kill through the battle regiment and rushed to the edge of the battle between the 1st Division and the devil, and at this time about a wing of the devil's cavalry could also arrive.
Zhang Mingyu took off the military hat on his head, wiped the dirty blood on the saber, threw the general's hat, raised the saber and said sharply: "Brothers, kill me!" β
Ma Liqun also roared angrily: "Rush! Kill! β
More than 2,000 cavalry rushed towards the Devil Cavalry Wing, and this Devil Cavalry Wing was originally two cavalry wings, namely the two cavalry wings under the jurisdiction of the 13th and 9th Divisions, because the cavalry wing of the 6th Division had long been annihilated by Zhang Mingyu when he had just broken through the siege of Nanjing.
Therefore, the three divisions of the devil only had two cavalry wings, and the cavalry wing of the thirteenth division ran into the armored tank regiment of the fourth division and lost more than half. The cavalry wing of the Ninth Division was also beaten by Xu Hu and the tank regiment, and with the addition of tanks, the devil cavalry could not play its due role at all.
The commander of the devil ordered them to withdraw from the battle immediately, and it happened that the devil's cavalry had just withdrawn from the battle, and the two cavalry wings, which had suffered more than half of the casualties, had just gathered together, and before they could attack, Zhang Mingyu led the cavalry regiment to kill.
Seeing the cavalry, the devil commander drew his command knife and shouted: "Warriors, the great chariots of the people of China are very powerful, but their cavalry must be vulnerable!" Warriors kill them all! Come on! β
Thousands of devil cavalry once again mustered up the courage to rush forward with their sabers, and soon the two cavalry torrents, one white and one yellow, collided fiercely!
The neighing of horses, the cracking of bones, and the clashing of weapons were intertwined into the sound of death.
The whole battlefield was like Shura hell, there were sounds of fighting everywhere, and this tragic battle lasted until the early morning morning, the remnants of the three divisions of the devils, under the double blow of tanks, armored vehicles and infantry soldiers, were almost killed and wounded, and there were still sporadic devils in individual corners to make the last stubborn resistance.
And Zhang Mingyu led more than 2,000 cavalry after a night of fierce fighting, and also fought out a cavalry wing of the devil, and at this time there were less than 500 soldiers who could sit on horses.
In a night of fierce fighting, the Reading Army almost wiped out the three divisions of the Yue Army at more than 6 o'clock in the morning, but the Reading Li Army also paid a heavy price, and the whole army suffered more than half of the casualties, and the cavalry regiment suffered three-quarters of the casualties.
The heaviest casualties were Li Gang and Liu Dalong's blocking troops, more than 500 people insisted on blocking the onslaught of the two wings of the devils for nearly a night, and after the devils were ordered to retreat, Li Gang and Liu Dalong and a few wounded soldiers were left on the blocking position.
When Ban Hengzheng learned that the battle was over, the three main divisions were completely annihilated. The reinforcements of the 20th Division had not yet broken through the defense line of the Reading Brigade, and he was cunning and blamed the defeat in this battle on the poor rescue of the 20th Division.
When General Terauchi Shouichi, commander of the North China Front Army, learned that the strategic plan to encircle and suppress the Reading Army had failed, and that almost three of the five main divisions had been completely annihilated and one was disabled, he couldn't help but be furious, and ordered the aviation regiment of the North China Front Army to immediately dispatch fighters to retaliate against the Reading Army!
At this time, the soldiers of the Reading Force began to clean up the battlefield and rescue the wounded with the help of the people, because the entire battlefield spread to more than ten miles, all the cleaning of the battlefield is more troublesome, Zhang Mingyu stood on the Yellow River Bridge at this time and looked at the corpses of devils stacked on the banks of the Yellow River, and a large number of [***] soldiers' corpses. Although this battle was won, it was definitely a miserable victory, Zhang Mingyu didn't mean to be happy at all, he couldn't help but moisten his eyes when he saw so many soldiers under his command all dead on the battlefield.
Zhang Mingyu turned to Liu Cheng and said, "Bring back the bodies of all the dead brothers to the base area!" β
"Yes!" Liu Cheng stood up.
At this time, the roar of the motor sounded in the sky, and Zhang Mingyu immediately understood, and shouted: "Everyone immediately hides and lies down!" β
Liu Cheng and others knocked Zhang Mingyu down, and at this time, about a dozen devil bombers swooped down towards the soldiers who were cleaning up the battlefield under the escort of more than 20 fighters.
Due to the field battle, Chen Xiaochun's air defense regiment stayed in Ordos and did not go to the front line, and the devil's plane unscrupulously strafed at low altitudes, chasing and killing the soldiers and civilians who were hiding in all directions.
Seeing that one by one the soldiers and civilians were hit by the devil's criminal machine gun and fell in a pool of blood, Zhang Mingyu punched the ground and shouted: "Order the Flying Eagle Squadron to dispatch immediately!" Knock all these dogs down for me! "Originally, Zhang Mingyu didn't plan to let the Air Force be exposed so early, because the Air Force dispatch was equivalent to telling the National Political Axe that Zhang Mingyu secretly formed the Air Force, and I am afraid that he will break with the National Political Axe in the future.
However, seeing the soldiers and civilians die tragically under the fire of the devil's plane, Zhang Mingyu's heart hurts, even if he breaks with the national political axe, Zhang Mingyu will not hesitate, as long as his troops do not commit treason, do not annihilate the Han, as long as they fight the devils, I believe that President Jiang will not be able to do anything to them.
After receiving the order, Su Dingtian ordered the Flying Eagle Squadron to be dispatched immediately, and Longer asked, "Sue of Mees!" Are we going on a campaign? β
"Hmm!" Su Dingtian nodded and said: "I received an order from the military seat to attack immediately, because the planes of the army are killing my brothers, my comrades-in-arms, we have to avenge them!" β
"Great, I can finally teach these cruel invaders a hard lesson!" Longer said excitedly. During the training with Su Dingtian, he learned about the behavior of the Yue Ben invading army in China, and the angry Long'er deeply sympathized with the Chinese who were persecuted by the Yue army, and wanted to personally pilot the fighter plane to teach these hateful Yue himself a fierce lesson.
Soon, more than 30 Jian-1 fighters of the Flying Eagle Squadron took to the air one after another, formed a charge formation in the air, and flew towards the sky over the Yellow River with Su Dingtian fighters as the vanguard.
The airfield is only more than 300 miles away from the Yellow River, and for the J-1 to reach a speed of more than 700 kilometers per hour, it rushed to the sky over the Yellow River in just a few minutes.
Su Dingtian was the first to arrive, he locked onto a Devil Type 92 bomber and immediately opened fire, the army bomber could not dodge and was hit by the dense course machine guns, and immediately caught fire in the air, and exploded in the air after flying not far away.
The other pilots also locked on the enemy planes one after another, and opened fire one after another, and the sudden appearance of the Flying Eagle fighters caught the devil's fighters off guard and hurriedly pulled up to fight!
When the infantry soldiers saw the fighter plane that suddenly appeared, chasing the little devil's plane, they couldn't help shouting hello and shouting: "Look, our plane!" That's great! β
The infantry on the ground cheered and threw their military caps into the air to express their joy in their hearts, and the appearance of the air force meant that they would no longer be "bullied" by the little devil planes in the future.
A veteran soldier said with tears in his eyes: "His grandmother's, we finally have our own fighter plane, and we don't have to be afraid of little devil planes in the future." Old squad leader, did you see your spirit in the sky? We have our own fighters, and I believe that the little devils will not be able to jump for a few days. β
In just 20 minutes, the Flying Eagle squadron shot down more than 20 enemy planes, without a single casualty of its own, and the remaining planes fled.
After beating off the devil's plane, Su Dingtian took the Flying Eagle Squadron to fly back and forth in the air a few times, and greeted the infantry brothers underground. Then soon returned with the Flying Eagle squadron.
Seeing that the devil's plane was driven away, the Air Force achieved a great victory, and the fighters excitedly accelerated the cleaning of the battlefield.
